The New England Recovery Center (NERC), a private-pay, state-of-the-art inpatient addiction treatment center located in Westborough, Mass., today announced that it now accepts all major insurance plans for clients seeking treatment for substance use disorders, as a result of a new partnership with CIGNA.

“The accessibility of quality, evidence-based treatment is absolutely crucial in the midst of this harrowing opioid epidemic, and we are pleased to be able to welcome new clients as a result of this partnership,” said Kurt Isaacson, president and CEO of NERC’s parent company, Spectrum Health Systems. “Long-term inpatient treatment is a key component of a well-rounded recovery plan, and we’ve fought hard to provide that opportunity to anybody who needs it – despite insurance coverage. We will continue to find ways to improve access to treatment for all.”

NERC provides medically monitored detoxification (Detox) and inpatient addiction treatment (Residential) for private pay and commercially insured clients in two state-of-the-art facilities located on Spectrum’s 25-acre treatment campus in Westborough. Featuring an individualized and holistic approach to recovery, NERC offers warm, welcoming and modern accommodations, a fitness center, beautiful outdoor spaces, art therapy, yoga, massage and specialized counseling for families.

In addition to CIGNA, NERC accepts insurance from AETNA, OPTUM (includes Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Health Plans, Inc, United Health Care, Neighborhood Health Plan as of January 1), Beacon (includes Fallon, BMC, Group Insurance Commission – GIC, Neighborhood Health Plan through 12.31.18), Tufts Commercial and Mass Laborers, Blue Cross Blue Shield of MA, Lower Hudson Valley, and more.
