At Changing Tides, we specialize in treating complex substance use cases through integrated, personalized care. Our clinical team creates custom treatment plans that address multiple substances and the underlying emotional or behavioral triggers behind addiction.

While costs depend on your specific Aetna plan, deductible, and coinsurance, in-network coverage with Changing Tides can significantly reduce your financial responsibility.

Our admissions team offers a confidential insurance verification process to clarify your expected costs and help you understand exactly what your Aetna plan covers before starting treatment.

Changing Tides treats a wide range of substance use disorders, many of which are covered under Aetna’s behavioral health benefits. We provide evidence-based, trauma-informed treatment in a supportive, coastal environment.

Common addictions we treat include:

  • Alcohol addiction
  • Opioid addiction (heroin, oxycodone, fentanyl)
  • Benzodiazepine addiction (Xanax, Valium, Klonopin)
  • Stimulant addiction (cocaine, methamphetamine, Adderall)
  • Prescription drug misuse
  • Marijuana dependency
  • Cross-addiction or polysubstance use

Each client receives an individualized treatment plan focused on long-term recovery and relapse prevention—all in a peaceful beachside setting in Kitty Hawk, NC.

Changing Tides offers two levels of outpatient treatment: Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP). Both programs provide structured care and therapy while allowing clients to live independently—or in our comfortable on-site housing near the beach.

Aetna insurance often covers all or part of these services under its behavioral health benefits, depending on medical necessity.

Here’s what typical coverage looks like:

  • Employer-sponsored plans may include a 20%–40% coinsurance after deductible.
  • Individual or family plans often offer 5%–30% coinsurance.
  • Some comprehensive plans may include full coverage for medically necessary PHP or IOP programs.

Our admissions team will confirm your eligibility and walk you through the cost breakdown—including co-pays and deductibles—so you can focus entirely on recovery.

If you require intensive treatment for a severe substance use disorder, Aetna rehab insurance may cover part of your housing or lodging costs during PHP or IOP.

However, coverage for accommodation varies by plan. Our team can help determine if your plan includes these benefits and explain any additional costs that might apply.
