Coverage Details
What ComPsych Typically Covers at Northbound
ComPsych provides behavioral health and EAP coverage that may include addiction treatment at multiple levels of care. Your specific benefits depend on your employer's plan — Northbound's team verifies your exact coverage.
Medical Detoxification
ComPsych behavioral health plans cover medically supervised detox when clinically indicated. Northbound's IMS-certified detox program qualifies under ComPsych's criteria for medically necessary substance use treatment.
Residential / Inpatient
ComPsych covers residential inpatient treatment for substance use disorders when medically necessary. Length of stay is subject to ComPsych's utilization management process — Northbound manages all reviews on your behalf.
Partial Hospitalization (PHP)
PHP at Northbound — providing up to 6 hours of structured daily clinical programming — is covered by most ComPsych behavioral health plans as an intermediate level of care.
Virtual IOP (Telehealth)
Northbound's virtual IOP (HomeBound) is covered by most ComPsych plans. EAP programs may also coordinate referrals to IOP directly through the GuidanceResources® referral network.
Dual-Diagnosis / Mental Health
ComPsych specializes in behavioral health — mental health and substance use disorders are covered together. Co-occurring conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD are treated alongside addiction at Northbound.
EAP Referral to Higher Care
ComPsych's GuidanceResources® EAP can provide initial counseling sessions and direct referrals to higher levels of care like Northbound's residential and PHP programs when clinical need is identified.

About ComPsych
Does ComPsych Cover Addiction Treatment?
Yes — ComPsych provides coverage for substance use disorder treatment, including medically supervised detox, residential inpatient, partial hospitalization (PHP), and virtual IOP (telehealth) programs through its behavioral health managed care and Employee Assistance Program (EAP) services. As the world's largest provider of employee assistance programs, ComPsych manages behavioral health benefits for more than 137 million employees and their families worldwide.
ComPsych typically functions as a behavioral health benefits manager rather than a primary insurer — meaning your employer's health plan may use ComPsych to manage behavioral health and EAP services while a separate carrier (such as Cigna or Aetna) handles medical coverage. ComPsych's GuidanceResources® program often provides initial counseling sessions and referrals that can connect directly to higher levels of care like Northbound's programs.
Northbound's admissions team has experience working with ComPsych's authorization process. We contact ComPsych directly on your behalf to determine your exact behavioral health benefits and coordinate care — at no cost to you.
