Virtual IOP with Aetna insurance in California
Kin Wellness works with Aetna plans for our virtual intensive outpatient program (IOP) for adults in California. Many plans cover intensive outpatient care, including by video, but coverage depends on your plan. Send us your insurance below or call 949.706.8610, and we will check your benefits and explain what you would pay before you commit to anything.
We do not accept Medi-Cal or Medicare, including Medicare Advantage plans. Private pay options are available.
PLANS AND BENEFITS
What we check on your Aetna plan
About Aetna plans
Aetna offers many kinds of plans through employers, including PPO, HMO and EPO plans. Send us what is on your card and we will check yours.
What we check for you
Whether your plan covers an intensive outpatient program, including by video, your deductible and how much of it you have met this year, your copay or coinsurance, whether your plan needs approval before you start, and your out of network benefits if Kin is out of network for your plan.
Medi-Cal, Medicare and private pay
We do not accept Medi-Cal or Medicare, including Medicare Advantage plans. Private pay options are available, and we can talk them through with you.

WHAT YOUR WEEK LOOKS LIKE
What a week in the program looks like
MORNING TRACK
9:00 AM to 12:00 PM Pacific, Monday through Friday. Three hour sessions of small groups led by licensed clinicians. Some groups teach skills you can use that same week, some explain what is happening in your mind and body, and some are space to talk through what is going on.
EVENING TRACK
5:00 PM to 8:00 PM Pacific, Monday through Friday, for people who work during the day. The same groups as the morning track, so you do not miss anything by choosing the evening.
AROUND THE GROUPS
Individual sessions with your therapist at least once a week and a treatment plan built around your goals.
QUESTIONS
Questions about Aetna and Kin Wellness
Does Aetna cover a virtual IOP?
Many Aetna plans cover intensive outpatient care, including by video. Coverage, approval rules and costs depend on your plan, so we check yours before you commit.
Is Kin Wellness in network with Aetna?
It depends on your plan. We tell you whether Kin is in or out of network for your plan, and what you would pay either way, before you commit to anything.
Do I need approval from Aetna before I start?
Some plans require it. We find out whether yours does before you start and tell you what comes next.
What will I pay?
It depends on your deductible, copay or coinsurance, and network status. We explain it in plain terms after we check your benefits.
Do you take Medi-Cal or Medicare plans?
No. We do not accept Medi-Cal or Medicare, including Medicare Advantage plans.
If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline) or call 911. Our program is not an emergency service.
