Rehabs That Take Community Health Choice

Community Health Choice is a not-for-profit health plan based in Houston, offering Texas Medicaid, CHIP and marketplace coverage to members across southeast Texas. Addiction treatment is covered throughout, including withdrawal management, residential care, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient programs, outpatient counseling and medication for opioid use disorder.

Texas has not expanded Medicaid, which is the central fact about coverage here. Adult eligibility is among the narrowest in the country, so for a great many people seeking treatment in Houston the marketplace or the state-funded system is the realistic route rather than Medicaid itself.

Common questions

Answered from what is listed here.

Does Community Health Choice cover rehab?

Yes. Substance use treatment is covered across every product line. Texas STAR and STAR+PLUS list outpatient and residential substance use services, CHIP covers detoxification and 24-hour residential rehabilitation, Marketplace HMO plans cover inpatient and outpatient behavioral health in network, and the Community DualCare D-SNP plans cover outpatient substance use services at $0.

Cost sharing differs by line: Medicaid STAR carries no copays, while 2026 Marketplace plans apply 40 to 50 percent coinsurance for inpatient behavioral health care.

Private Insurance Acceptedhttps://rehabseekers.com/insurance-accepted/private-insurance-accepted/

Does Community Health Choice cover detox?

Yes, withdrawal management is a covered benefit across the plan lines. STAR+PLUS lists outpatient and residential withdrawal management, CHIP covers detoxification within inpatient and residential substance use treatment, and the Community DualCare D-SNP plans pay $0 for ambulatory treatment and detox. Marketplace plans cover inpatient substance use care in network.

Non-emergency detox needs prior authorization on CHIP, and emergency care never does. The 24/7 behavioral health and crisis line for Medicaid and CHIP members is 1.877.343.3108.

Detox Centershttps://rehabseekers.com/programs/detox-centers/

Does Community Health Choice cover inpatient or residential rehab?

Yes, residential substance use treatment is listed as a benefit under Texas STAR, and STAR+PLUS adds residential withdrawal management. CHIP covers 24-hour residential rehabilitation with no copay. On 2026 Marketplace plans, inpatient behavioral health runs 40 percent coinsurance on Premier Bronze 003 and 50 percent on Premier Silver 012.

Inpatient stays need preauthorization; the Ultra Select Silver 019 summary states this directly. Medicare D-SNP members pay $0 for inpatient mental health care, subject to Medicare's 190-day lifetime psychiatric hospital limit.

Residential Rehabhttps://rehabseekers.com/programs/residential/

Does Community Health Choice cover IOP?

Yes, intensive outpatient programs are covered under STAR, STAR+PLUS and CHIP. The STAR handbook describes IOP as at least 10 hours a week of structured therapy and life skills training, lasting 4 to 12 weeks. CHIP sets the same minimum of 10 hours weekly.

Marketplace plans define intensive outpatient as at least three hours a day, two or more days a week, and bill it as an outpatient behavioral health service.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)https://rehabseekers.com/programs/outpatient/iop/

Does Community Health Choice cover partial hospitalization?

Yes, partial hospitalization is covered by STAR and STAR+PLUS, and the STAR handbook describes it as a short-term program like staying at a hospital without sleeping there, with medication-assisted treatment available inside it. Marketplace plans define partial hospitalization as a minimum of five hours a day, five days a week.

Preauthorization applies to certain outpatient behavioral health services, so ask the program to send the request to Community before your first day.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)https://rehabseekers.com/programs/outpatient/php/

Does Community Health Choice cover medication-assisted treatment?

Yes, medication-assisted treatment is named as a covered service in Texas STAR within partial hospitalization, in STAR+PLUS outpatient substance use services, and in both Community DualCare D-SNP plans at a $0 copay. Prescriptions for Medicaid and CHIP members follow the Texas Vendor Drug Program formulary.

Marketplace pharmacy benefits run through Navitus Health Solutions on three separate formularies, so check the drug list for your Premier, Select or Ultra Select plan.

Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT)https://rehabseekers.com/medications/mat/

Does Community Health Choice cover therapy?

Yes, outpatient mental health care, psychiatry and mental health rehabilitative services are covered under STAR, and CHIP covers outpatient mental health in community settings including school and home-based services. The Community DualCare Access plan pays $0 for individual therapy, group therapy and psychiatrist visits.

No numerical limit on mental health or substance use visits appears in the STAR handbook, though individual services can still require prior authorization.

Individual Therapyhttps://rehabseekers.com/therapies/counseling-and-therapy/individual-therapy/

How much does therapy cost with Community Health Choice?

$30 per outpatient mental health office visit on Community Premier Silver 012 and Community Ultra Select Silver 019, and $40 on Community Premier Bronze 003, with the deductible not applied. Medicaid STAR members pay nothing, and CHIP applies no copay for mental health or substance use office visits.

Other outpatient behavioral health services beyond the office visit carry 40 or 50 percent coinsurance on those Marketplace plans, and Medicare D-SNP members pay $0.

Counseling and Therapyhttps://rehabseekers.com/therapies/counseling-and-therapy/

Does Community Health Choice need prior authorization for rehab?

Yes, for non-emergency admissions. CHIP requires prior authorization for inpatient mental health, inpatient or residential substance use treatment and outpatient substance use treatment. Marketplace summaries say preauthorization is required for certain outpatient and inpatient behavioral health services and that skipping it can mean denial of benefits.

Community reviews requests itself, applying state and federal rules first, then its own Medical Review Guidelines, then InterQual. Urgent decisions come in one business day, routine ones in three.

Inpatient Rehabhttps://rehabseekers.com/programs/inpatient/

Do I need a referral for substance use treatment with Community Health Choice?

No. STAR and STAR+PLUS members do not need to see their primary care provider first or get a referral before starting mental health or drug and alcohol treatment. Marketplace plans also allow open access to network specialists and say no referral is needed for behavioral health.

Prior authorization is a separate step from a referral and can still apply to inpatient, residential and certain outpatient substance use services.

Outpatient Rehabhttps://rehabseekers.com/programs/outpatient/

Does Community Health Choice cover out-of-network rehab?

No, outside of emergencies. Marketplace HMO plans give no benefit for non-participating providers except emergency care or when no participating provider is available, and non-emergency out-of-network care needs prior authorization or you pay in full. Medicaid follows the same pattern.

STAR covers medically necessary services out of network only when they are unavailable in network and authorization is granted; outside the service area, only emergency care is covered.

Self Pay Rehabhttps://rehabseekers.com/payment/self-pay/

Is Community Health Choice Medicaid?

Yes, in part. Community Health Choice is a Texas Medicaid managed care plan for STAR and STAR+PLUS and a CHIP and CHIP Perinate plan, but it also sells ACA Marketplace HMO plans and two Medicare dual-eligible special needs plans. Your benefits depend on which product you are enrolled in.

STAR covers children, pregnant women and families; STAR+PLUS adds long-term services and supports and began in the Harris service area in September 2024.

Medicaid Rehabhttps://rehabseekers.com/insurance-accepted/medicaid/

Does Community Health Choice have Medicare plans?

Yes, two dual-eligible special needs plans are offered for 2026: Community DualCare Access, covering 11 counties including Jefferson, Liberty and Chambers, and Community DualCare Aligned, covering nine counties including Harris, Fort Bend and Montgomery. Both carry no monthly premium and no deductible.

Eligibility requires Medicare Part A and Part B plus Texas Medicaid in the QMB Only, QMB Plus or SLMB Plus category. The member line is 1-833-276-8306.

Medicare Rehabhttps://rehabseekers.com/insurance-accepted/medicare/

What counties does Community Health Choice cover?

Community Health Choice operates only in Southeast Texas, across 20 counties: Austin, Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Hardin, Harris, Jasper, Jefferson, Liberty, Matagorda, Montgomery, Newton, Orange, Polk, San Jacinto, Tyler, Walker, Waller and Wharton. Not every plan is sold in every county.

STAR+PLUS runs in nine Harris service area counties, and the lower-premium Select and Ultra Select Marketplace plans are sold to Harris and Fort Bend County residents.

State Insurance Rehabhttps://rehabseekers.com/insurance-accepted/state-insurance/

How do I find a rehab that takes Community Health Choice?

Search the Find a Provider tool in My Member Account, choosing your plan such as STAR, and filter by behavioral health specialty or county. You can also call the behavioral health line, 1.877.343.3108 for STAR, STAR+PLUS and CHIP members or 1.855.539.5881 for Marketplace members, both answered 24/7.

Ask the program whether it holds a contract for your specific line before admission, since Marketplace, Medicaid and Medicare networks differ.

Does Community Health Choice Cover Rehab?

Yes, for those enrolled. Coverage includes assessment, medically supervised withdrawal, residential treatment where the benefit provides it, intensive outpatient, outpatient counseling, medication for opioid use disorder and case management.

Community Health Choice was created by the Harris Health System and remains a not-for-profit serving the Houston region. It offers Texas Medicaid and CHIP alongside marketplace plans, and which of those you hold changes almost everything about how you reach treatment.

Texas Eligibility

Texas did not expand Medicaid. Adults without dependent children generally do not qualify at any income, and the threshold for parents is extremely low. This leaves the largest coverage gap of any state in absolute terms. If you are in that gap, the sections below on the marketplace and state-funded treatment matter more than the Medicaid detail.

If You Do Not Qualify for Medicaid

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission funds substance use treatment for people without coverage through contracted providers, with services delivered on a sliding scale and priority given to pregnant women and people who inject drugs. That is the front door for anyone uninsured, and it is not a lesser route.

Marketplace coverage is the other option, and Community Health Choice sells it. In a non-expansion state the threshold effect is real: earning above the poverty level opens subsidised coverage that is unavailable below it, which is counterintuitive and worth checking rather than assuming.

Harris Health also operates a public hospital system serving county residents regardless of ability to pay, which includes behavioral health services.

Coverage by Level of Care

Withdrawal Management

Covered where dependence is physical. Alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal carry seizure risk, and emergency care applies regardless of coverage status, which matters in a region where many people seeking help are uninsured.

Residential Treatment

Covered under Medicaid where the state benefit provides it and under marketplace plans subject to authorization. Houston has reasonable capacity by Texas standards; the surrounding rural counties have far less.

Outpatient and Intensive Outpatient

Both covered and generally quicker to access than a residential bed. Where a wait exists, starting outpatient immediately is the better decision.

Medication for Opioid Use Disorder

Buprenorphine, methadone and naltrexone are covered. Houston has a reasonable spread of opioid treatment programs and office-based prescribers relative to most of Texas.

Language and Community

Houston is among the most diverse cities in the United States, with very large Spanish speaking and Vietnamese speaking populations alongside many others. Treatment delivered in someone’s second language, to a model that assumes a particular way of talking about family and shame, tends not to hold.

Interpretation is required at no cost, and you are entitled to it rather than obliged to bring a relative to translate. Ask whether any contracted program delivers treatment directly in your language, which works considerably better than an interpreter attending a group.

Verifying Coverage

Ask before you admit

Is this specific facility in network, and what does my plan pay if it is not?

What are my deductible, coinsurance and out-of-pocket maximum this year, and how much have I already met?

Does detox, residential, PHP or IOP require prior authorization?

How is continued stay reviewed, and what is the appeal route if care is denied?

If you are uninsured, the questions differ: ask whether the provider is state-funded, what the sliding scale means at your income, and whether a waiting list applies.

What Treatment Costs

Medicaid members pay little or nothing. Marketplace members pay according to deductible and coinsurance, and metal tier matters: cost-sharing reductions are available only on silver plans and only at certain incomes. The rates below show underlying market costs.

Typical US market rates before insurance
Level of care	Monthly	Daily
Medical detox (7–14 days)	$1,500 – $5,200 per week	$215 – $745
Residential inpatient	$6,200 – $26,000	$205 – $865
PHP	$7,200 – $14,000	$240 – $465
IOP	$2,700 – $9,200	$90 – $305
Outpatient	$1,300 – $5,200	$45 – $175

Coverage for Specific Substances

Fentanyl has driven overdose deaths sharply upward across Harris County, including through counterfeit pills sold as prescription medication. Naloxone is covered and worth having in any household where someone is still using.

Alcohol remains the most common substance overall, and methamphetamine is heavily represented across southeast Texas. Methamphetamine has no approved medication, so treatment there rests on behavioral programs.

Aftercare

Continuing outpatient care, medication management and peer support are covered. Texas operates a certification scheme for recovery housing, and checking that status before moving into a house is worthwhile.

Hurricanes and Disruption

The Gulf Coast is repeatedly disrupted by storms and flooding, and the aftermath produces displacement, lost work, damaged homes and trauma. Relapse and new-onset drinking both rise after events of that kind, and treatment already underway gets interrupted.

Behavioral health services expand after federally declared disasters, sometimes with dedicated funding. If your circumstances changed because of a storm, say so when seeking help, because it may open services that are not otherwise obvious. And if you are on medication, having more than a few days supply and a copy of your prescription is worth arranging before hurricane season rather than during it.
