Across all levels of care, The Hope House fosters a supportive environment where individualized plans and comprehensive care guide you toward lasting recovery. In this article, you’ll learn how HealthNet coverage supports your journey, explore each outpatient option we offer, and discover how to balance treatment with daily life.
Understand Health Net coverage
Health Net insurance is required by parity laws to cover medically necessary treatment for mental health and substance use disorders at levels comparable to physical health care. Your plan may include outpatient services such as office visits with a therapist, psychiatrist, or other behavioral health professional, often without preauthorization for most covered outpatient services [1]. In addition, choosing an in-network provider ensures set pricing and lower out-of-pocket expenses, so you can focus on recovery rather than costs.
Founded in 1979, Health Net now serves over 3 million members through a network of 85,000 providers and 3,000 employees [2]. As a result, you have access to in-network facilities across all 50 states. By confirming coverage details with your plan, you can verify which levels of care and therapies are included, ensuring you get the support necessary for lasting recovery.

Partial hospitalization program
The Hope House partial hospitalization program (PHP) delivers intensive treatment—similar to inpatient care—while allowing you to return home each evening. Typically providing around 20 hours per week of structured therapy and medical monitoring, this level of care helps you address underlying issues without stepping away from family life.
Key features of PHP:
- Individual therapy sessions with a licensed clinician
- Group therapy focusing on relapse prevention and life-skills
- Medical supervision for safe medication management
- Family workshops to improve communication and support
By engaging in PHP, you benefit from a supportive environment that fosters accountability and fosters connections with peers facing similar challenges. For more on how The Hope House coordinates PHP benefits under other major insurers, see php program covered by aetna insurance.
Intensive outpatient program
If you need a step-down from PHP or a direct admission point, our intensive outpatient program (IOP) offers 9–19 hours per week of group therapy sessions, individual counseling, and skill-building workshops. You can attend in the mornings or evenings, maintaining work or school commitments as you progress [3].
Highlights of IOP:
- Group therapy to explore coping strategies
- Life-skills training for stress management and healthy routines
- Flexible scheduling to fit your daily affairs
- Ongoing assessment by clinical staff
In addition, HealthNet generally covers IOP under mental health and substance use benefits, helping you access evidence-based care without high out-of-pocket costs. Learn more about our alcohol and drug IOP with coverage at iop for alcohol and drug rehab with healthnet coverage.
Medication-assisted treatment
Our medication-assisted treatment (MAT) integrates FDA-approved medications like Suboxone with counseling to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms. You’ll meet regularly with medical professionals for medication management and participate in individual or group therapy, creating a comprehensive care plan tailored to your unique challenges.
Benefits of MAT:
- Reduced risk of relapse through stabilized brain chemistry
- Personalized medication plans adjusted by physicians
- Behavioral counseling to address triggers
- Flexible visits that fit your schedule
HealthNet covers MAT services under its outpatient behavioral health benefits, ensuring you can access medication-assisted therapy without financial barriers. Find details on coverage and eligibility in our guide to medication assisted therapy with healthnet coverage.

At The Hope House, you can choose from individual, group, and family therapy—all designed to support your journey in a supportive environment that values understanding and growth. These sessions help you process emotions, strengthen coping skills, and address co-occurring mental health issues.
Types of therapy offered:
- Individual therapy for one-on-one support

Balance treatment with life
Maintaining daily routines while in recovery can feel overwhelming, but our outpatient options are designed to fit your responsibilities. With flexible schedules and multiple program levels, you can continue working, caring for loved ones, and pursuing personal goals without compromising your treatment.
Tips for balancing treatment with life:
- Schedule sessions during early mornings or evenings
- Use telehealth appointments when in-person visits aren’t possible
- Coordinate with employers or schools for necessary accommodations
- Lean on peer support groups for motivation between sessions
By integrating care into your existing routine, you build recovery habits that endure beyond formal treatment.
Support continuity of care
Smooth transitions between levels of care reinforce progress and minimize setbacks. At The Hope House, your clinical team works with you to create an individualized plan that guides you from PHP to IOP to standard outpatient therapy, ensuring each step fosters growth.
| Level of care | Weekly hours | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Partial hospitalization | ~20 hours | Intensive therapy and medical monitoring |
| Intensive outpatient | 9–19 hours | Skill-building and group support |
| Outpatient therapy | 1–2 hours/week | Individual sessions and check-ins |
This structured approach provides a clear roadmap, helping you build confidence and maintain momentum.
