When you face the unique challenges of co-occurring mental health concerns and substance use disorders, finding residential rehab for co-occurring disorders with Aetna can feel overwhelming. You need a program that accepts your insurance, delivers clinically intensive care, and supports both aspects of your health. Florida Oasis offers an in-network dual diagnosis treatment center where evidence-based therapies merge with holistic modalities, ensuring you receive comprehensive care in a nurturing, supportive environment.
By choosing Florida Oasis, you gain access to tailored treatment programs, integrated psychiatric services, and trauma-informed therapies—all covered under many Aetna plans. In this guide, you’ll learn how your benefits work, what makes Florida Oasis exceptional, and how to plan every step of your recovery journey.
Understand your Aetna coverage
Navigating your Aetna benefits is the first step toward securing the treatment you need. Coverage for dual diagnosis treatment varies by plan, so you’ll want to confirm details before you begin.
Coverage for co-occurring disorders
Under the Affordable Care Act, most Aetna plans must cover both mental health and substance use disorder treatment without stricter limits than those for physical health [1]. This parity means you can access psychiatric evaluations, individual therapy, and residential programs when you choose an in-network provider. Florida Oasis works directly with Aetna to minimize out-of-pocket costs and streamline your admissions process.
Levels of care
Aetna often covers multiple levels of treatment depending on clinical need:
| Level of care | Coverage details | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Inpatient residential rehab | Covered if you use an in-network facility | Preauthorization required |
| Partial hospitalization program (PHP) | Covered under outpatient benefits | Structured daytime treatment |
| Intensive outpatient program (IOP) | Covered with lower copays | Flexible scheduling |
| Standard outpatient services | Covered | Individual and group therapy available |
| Medically assisted detoxification (MAT) | Covered, often without prior authorization for buprenorphine | Supports safe withdrawal |
MAT and therapy access
Aetna has removed some prior authorization requirements for medications like buprenorphine, making it easier to access Medication-Assisted Treatment for opioid or alcohol use disorders [2]. You’ll also find that individual therapies—such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)—and group sessions are included under many plans.

Compare evidence-based therapies
A foundational element of your residential program is the use of evidence-based therapies. These approaches have been scientifically validated to promote recovery and reduce relapse risk.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you identify and challenge negative thought patterns that drive substance use and worsen mood disorders. Through skill-building exercises, you’ll learn to:
- Reframe unhelpful beliefs
- Develop healthier coping strategies
- Practice problem-solving techniques
This structured approach empowers you to interrupt cycles of shame and avoidance.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
DBT focuses on balancing acceptance and change. You’ll work on:
- Mindfulness to stay present
- Distress tolerance for crisis situations
- Emotion regulation to reduce impulsivity
- Interpersonal effectiveness to improve relationships
DBT’s group format also fosters community and mutual support.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a specialized therapy for processing traumatic memories that contribute to both addiction and mental health challenges. Under guided supervision, bilateral stimulation helps your brain reprocess distressing events, reducing the lingering emotional impact.
| Therapy type | Focus | Key benefits |
|---|---|---|
| CBT | Thoughts and behaviors | Reduces negative patterns, builds coping |
| DBT | Emotions and relationships | Improves regulation, enhances self-esteem |
| EMDR | Traumatic memories | Alleviates PTSD symptoms, promotes healing |
