Frequently asked questions
Should someone from Marlin stay in Texas for treatment?

Does insurance cover dual diagnosis treatment in Texas?
Most commercial health plans cover medically necessary addiction treatment, including residential and inpatient care. Texas law requires group plans to cover chemical dependency treatment on terms no less favorable than physical illness, and state and federal parity rules apply. Coverage depends on your plan, network and medical necessity reviews, so it helps to verify benefits before admission.

Yes. Residential dual diagnosis programs include psychiatric providers who can prescribe and manage medications for mental health conditions.
What conditions does dual diagnosis treatment cover?
