Treatment Centers in Rhode Island That Accept Wellcare
Wellcare’s only coverage in Rhode Island is stand-alone Medicare prescription drug plans, Wellcare Classic and Wellcare Value Script, so it pays for medications rather than for drug and alcohol rehab stays. Original Medicare, Part A and Part B, pays for inpatient, outpatient and opioid treatment program care for Rhode Islanders who pair it with a Wellcare drug plan.
Program listings below give each phone number, level of care and accreditation, drawn from government treatment registers and Rhode Island licensing records. Filter by city, setting or medication, and bring both the Medicare card and the Wellcare card to admission, since each pays a different part of treatment.

Does Wellcare Cover Rehab in Rhode Island?
Not directly. Wellcare sells only stand-alone Part D prescription drug plans in Rhode Island, because the state is not on Centene’s list of 32 states with Wellcare Medicare Advantage for 2026. A Wellcare member’s rehab stay is billed to Original Medicare, and the Wellcare plan covers prescriptions filled at pharmacies.
Wellcare is Centene Corporation’s Medicare brand, offering Medicare Advantage and stand-alone drug plans; Centene completed its acquisition of WellCare on January 23, 2020, a few months after WellCare bought Aetna’s Medicare Part D business. Wellcare’s drug plans run in all fifty states, and its 2027 announcement keeps Wellcare Classic and Value Script in every state.
Which Wellcare plans can Rhode Islanders buy?
Rhode Islanders can buy Wellcare Classic or Wellcare Value Script, the two stand-alone Part D products Wellcare sells nationally for 2026. Both offer a zero copay on Tier 1 drugs at preferred pharmacies, and each has its own published formulary. Current members call 1-888-550-5252, and people comparing plans call 1-844-480-0700, TTY 711.
Does Wellcare Cover Inpatient Rehab in Rhode Island?
No; Original Medicare Part A covers it for Wellcare drug plan members. Part A pays for inpatient mental health and substance use care in a general or psychiatric hospital, and inpatient rehab programs or Medicare inpatient rehab bill Part A rather than the Wellcare card.
How long will Medicare pay for inpatient care in Rhode Island?
Original Medicare sets a 190-day lifetime limit on care in freestanding psychiatric hospitals, the main limit Medicare places on behavioral health stays. For 2026, Part A charges a deductible per benefit period, then nothing per day for days one through 60, and a daily coinsurance from day 61.
Does a Wellcare drug plan change how a Rhode Island admission works?
No. The program bills Original Medicare for the stay, and the Wellcare plan pays only for drugs filled through a pharmacy, such as prescriptions sent home at discharge. The Wellcare formulary for the plan year shows which outpatient drugs are covered.
Does Wellcare Cover Detox in Rhode Island?
No; detox is a Medicare Part A or Part B service, not a Part D one. Inpatient detox in a hospital falls under Part A, and Medicare detox programs show which Rhode Island programs bill Medicare. Medications prescribed for use at home after detox can run through the Wellcare drug plan.
Does Wellcare Cover Outpatient Rehab in Rhode Island?
No; Medicare Part B does. Part B covers outpatient therapy, counseling, psychiatric evaluation, medication management, family counseling and partial hospitalization when medically necessary, which includes Medicare outpatient rehab and Medicare partial hospitalization in Rhode Island, whether or not the member also holds a Wellcare drug plan.
Medicare also covers mental health counseling by phone or video, so Medicare telehealth programs work for Rhode Islanders on a Wellcare drug plan. After the Part B deductible, most outpatient mental health services carry 20 percent coinsurance under Original Medicare, a cost the Wellcare plan does not pay.
Does Wellcare Cover Suboxone, Methadone and Other Addiction Medications in Rhode Island?
Partly. Medicare covers methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone for opioid use disorder, with counseling and drug testing, through Medicare-enrolled opioid treatment programs under Part B, and Part D plans such as Wellcare Classic and Value Script may cover some of these drugs when filled at a pharmacy.
Wellcare drug plans also matter for Rhode Islanders treated for a mental health condition alongside substance use, because Part D plans must cover antidepressants, anticonvulsants and antipsychotics, with limited exceptions. A dual diagnosis program can prescribe those medications at discharge, and the Wellcare formulary for the plan year sets the tier for each one.
Does Wellcare cover methadone in Rhode Island?
No; methadone for opioid use disorder runs through Medicare Part B at enrolled opioid treatment programs, not through a Wellcare drug plan. Methadone clinic programs bill Part B, and Original Medicare charges no copay for opioid treatment program services once the Part B deductible is met.
Does Wellcare cover Suboxone in Rhode Island?
Suboxone coverage on a Wellcare drug plan depends on the plan’s formulary for the year. Wellcare publishes separate Value Script and Wellcare Classic formularies, and Medicare Suboxone programs can also supply buprenorphine through an opioid treatment program under Part B instead of the pharmacy benefit.
Wellcare Rehab Centers by the Sea, Near Point Judith and Along the Blackstone
Wellcare’s drug plans pay pharmacies rather than treatment programs, and Original Medicare pays Medicare-enrolled programs anywhere in the state. The settings below therefore differ only in scenery, and each listing shows whether the program accepts Medicare before a Wellcare member calls.
Wellcare and Medicare rehab near Charlestown beaches
Charlestown’s barrier beaches, East Beach and Blue Shutters, sit between Westerly and South Kingstown along Block Island Sound. Rehab centers near beaches and Westerly rehab listings bill Original Medicare for treatment, with prescriptions filled under the Wellcare plan at a pharmacy the member chooses from Wellcare’s network.
Wellcare and Medicare rehab near Point Judith and Galilee
Point Judith and the fishing port of Galilee in Narragansett hold the ferry docks for Block Island, with Wakefield and Peace Dale a few miles inland. Programs near marinas and harbors and Wakefield treatment options take Medicare Part A or Part B for the program itself, while home medications run through Wellcare.
Wellcare and Medicare rehab along the Blackstone River
The Blackstone River links Woonsocket, Cumberland, Central Falls and Pawtucket in the state’s northeast corner. Rehabs near rivers and Woonsocket recovery programs bill Original Medicare, and a Wellcare member fills take-home prescriptions at a network pharmacy, using the Tier 1 zero copay where a preferred pharmacy is used.
How Do I Find a Rehab That Accepts Wellcare in Rhode Island?
Browse the listings on this page first and look for programs that accept Medicare. Each listing shows the program’s phone number, levels of care and accreditation, and filters narrow results by city, setting and medication. The rehabs that accept Wellcare page covers states where Wellcare sells health plans.
Admission for a Wellcare drug plan member runs through Original Medicare, so the program needs the Medicare card for the stay and the Wellcare card only for prescriptions. Wellcare’s member line answers formulary, tier and pharmacy questions for the plan year. The table sets out who pays for what and the line for each.
| Coverage route | What it pays for in Rhode Island | Phone |
|---|---|---|
| Wellcare Classic or Value Script (Part D) | Prescriptions filled at pharmacies | Members 1-888-550-5252; prospective 1-844-480-0700 |
| Original Medicare Part A | Inpatient hospital and psychiatric hospital care | Number on the Medicare card |
| Original Medicare Part B | Outpatient therapy, partial hospitalization, opioid treatment programs | Number on the Medicare card |
| Neighborhood INTEGRITY for Duals | Medicare and Medicaid together in one plan | 1-844-812-6896 |
Wellcare drug plan members in Providence
Providence members on Wellcare Classic or Value Script use Original Medicare for treatment at Providence rehab centers and Federal Hill programs. Prescriptions sent home from those programs go to the Wellcare formulary, with Tier 1 drugs at no copay at preferred pharmacies.
Wellcare drug plan members in Cranston and Warwick
Cranston and Warwick residents with Medicare and a Wellcare drug plan see the same split between Part A, Part B and Part D as the rest of the state. Cranston treatment programs and Warwick recovery programs bill Medicare for counseling and partial hospital care, and the Wellcare plan covers only what the pharmacy fills afterward.
Wellcare drug plan members in Newport County
Newport County residents with Medicare and Medicaid have a fully integrated option in Neighborhood INTEGRITY for Duals, which combines Medicare and Medicaid benefits in one plan and includes drug coverage with no copays for Tier 1 and Tier 2 drugs. Newport treatment listings and Middletown area programs bill whichever plan the member holds.
Wellcare drug plan members choosing Medicare Advantage instead
Rhode Islanders who want one plan for treatment and drugs choose among other carriers, because Wellcare sells no Medicare Advantage here and Tufts Medicare Preferred covers only Massachusetts counties. UnitedHealthcare offers Dual Special Needs Plans in Rhode Island, and Medicare rehab programs list which Medicare plans they accept for each level of care.
Can I use a Wellcare drug plan outside Rhode Island?
Yes. Wellcare’s stand-alone drug plans run in all fifty states, and network pharmacies can be found on Wellcare’s pharmacy search. Treatment itself still bills Original Medicare, so a Rhode Islander treated in another state keeps the same split between Medicare for care and Wellcare for prescriptions.
How much does rehab cost with Wellcare in Rhode Island?
The Wellcare plan affects only drug costs: Tier 1 drugs carry no copay at preferred pharmacies. The treatment itself costs what Original Medicare charges, including the Part A deductible per benefit period and 20 percent coinsurance for most outpatient mental health services after the Part B deductible.
Wellcare is one small part of how treatment is paid for in Rhode Island, next to Original Medicare, RIte Care, employer plans and state funding.
