Rehabs that take First Health in Minnesota

All 8 Minnesota facilities in this directory report accepting First Health, and all 8 also report accepting Medicaid, Tricare, private insurance and self-pay. Reporting acceptance is not the same as being in network for your specific plan, so confirm the facility's network status with First Health using the member number on your card, and ask the admissions office to check it from their side too.

That depends entirely on your policy — the employer or plan sponsor behind it, the network tier and the level of care being requested. Substance use and mental health benefits are generally handled alongside medical benefits under federal and Minnesota parity rules, but the specifics of First Health rehab coverage in Minnesota live in your own plan documents, so ask your insurer what is covered and what prior authorization is needed.

Call the behavioral health number on the back of your insurance card and ask three things: is this facility in network, is this level of care covered, and is prior authorization required. Then call the facility's admissions line with the same questions and ask them to run a benefits check. Getting the answer twice, from both sides, is how most people avoid a surprise bill.

Five of the eight listed centers report detox among the services they offer, and coverage for withdrawal management is usually reviewed separately from residential or outpatient care. Ask your insurer specifically about detox authorization, and ask the facility whether they provide it on site or refer out.

Nobody can quote you a figure in advance, because alcohol treatment cost under a First Health plan depends on your deductible, coinsurance, out-of-pocket maximum and whether the facility is in network. Six of the eight listed Minnesota centers report treating alcohol. Ask the facility for a written estimate and your insurer for your remaining deductible before you commit.

Yes — all 8 listed Minnesota centers report virtual or telehealth services, which matters if you live hours from a metro or cannot take extended time away from work or family. Telehealth benefits are billed under their own rules, so ask your insurer how remote outpatient and IOP sessions are covered under your plan.

You may be eligible for Minnesota Medical Assistance or other state-funded help, and all 8 listed centers report accepting Medicaid. Five of the eight also report IHS or tribal payment arrangements. Ask the facility's admissions or financial counselor what applies to your situation.

Day treatment and PHP sit between residential care and standard outpatient — structured hours most days of the week, with nights at home. Six of the eight Minnesota centers listed here report it, and seven report intensive outpatient, so there are options between the two extremes. Coverage for each level is authorized separately by the plan.
