Will my plan pay for rehab?

Usually some of it. The share depends on your plan rather than on the center. A plan tends to approve a level of care in blocks of days, then review whether to carry on. Get any authorization in writing, with the number of days it covers.

What is buprenorphine used for?

The short version is a prescribed medication that reduces cravings and withdrawal, taken under supervision. Some programs are abstinence based by design and do not use medication at all, which is a real difference between centers. Ask who prescribes, how often you would be seen, and where the prescription is filled.
