When Virginia Holleman's son entered a treatment program, she
poured over her insurance benefits to be sure substance use disorder
was covered. But two days after he was admitted to the treatment
facility, the insurance company refused to pay.
"I was stuck in the middle of an untenable catch-22 between the
treatment facility and the insurance company, while my son was
fighting for his life and my family was in crisis."
Unfortunately, Virginia's story is not uncommon. When insurance
companies determine that care is no longer medically necessary and
deny ongoing payment, patients have to make difficult financial
decisions or are forced to stop in the middle of treatment.

People and families struggling with substance use and addiction
encounter a variety of systemic challenges throughout their journey,
which is why we created a new section of our website called "Help Us
Change the Story of Addiction." The site features personal stories
like Virginia's that bring these structural barriers to life.
Each story highlighted will offer visitors an opportunity to advocate
for specific policy change by signing an action alert or by sharing
similar stories from their own journey.
