The New York State Health Insurance Program (NYSHIP) provides comprehensive health benefits to New York State employees, retirees, and their families. At Refine Recovery in Beverly Hills, we work with NYSHIP insurance to help New York State employees and their dependents access luxury addiction treatment, even when seeking care outside of New York.
NYSHIP offers robust behavioral health coverage through The Empire Plan and participating HMOs. Many NYSHIP members find therapeutic value in traveling to California for treatment—geographic distance from familiar triggers combined with a change of environment can enhance recovery outcomes.

NYSHIP members choose between The Empire Plan (fee-for-service with behavioral health through Magellan Healthcare) and various HMO options. Coverage varies based on employment status—active employees, retirees, dependents, and COBRA continuation.
For out-of-state coverage, The Empire Plan typically offers better benefits than HMOs. Cost-sharing includes premiums, annual deductibles, copayments, coinsurance, and out-of-pocket maximums.
