In the US many insurance plans don't even cover alcohol addiction treatment. It's ridiculous. Luckily mine has covered my shrink for over two years but now they say they want to cut me off. DUH????? Would they say that if I had cancer? Is this my choice? I have fought it and done the best I can for years. What about the patient who has to have a $400,000 heart surgery even though his/her doctor has been telling him for years to stop eating hot dogs, lose that extra 200 pounds, do some exercise, etc. Insurance covers that.
I agree with you and I can't understand it. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.Rest in Peace, Bear. We miss you. -

And Mags, they will cover you if you are going through liver failure and need treatment or a transplant. However the drugs to help you beat alcohol problems ,which may cause liver failure, they don't. Go figure.MarcieComment

Max,
They still look at our problem as one that we can prevent! It's our fault ! Smoking was dumped on us,,,,,with out our knowledge ! It's insane ! Just the way our Dept. of Health deals with our problems ! (an ostrach has fiquired it out ! ) IAD
