People call it a few different things. Banner University Family Care, Banner Family Care, Banner Access, sometimes just Banner. They are the same plan, and the card in your hand is all we need to get started.

What it pays for

Banner covers the whole stay

Banner University Family Care is an Access plan, which means it covers medically supervised detox and residential treatment — the same rooms, the same meals and the same clinical team as anyone else here.

You are not getting a lesser version of this. If anything, Medicaid authorizations for residential care tend to run longer than commercial ones, which means more time to do the work rather than less.

Eligibility moves around — plenty of people arrive having just been reinstated. If yours has lapsed or you are not sure where it stands, call anyway and we will check it with you.

Medical detox

Covered

Nursing on site around the clock, physician oversight, and medication to manage withdrawal. Typically a few days depending on what you have been using.

Residential treatment

Covered

A full live-in stay, commonly authorized between thirty and forty-five days — often longer than a commercial policy would allow.

Co-occurring mental health

Covered

Depression, anxiety, PTSD and trauma addressed inside the residential program, not arranged separately afterwards.

"Buena Vista was great for me. Comfortable, good groups, great staff. If I need to return I know they are there. And I'd recommend this place to anyone in need of recovery from addiction. Lolo at the front is always warm and welcoming, the nurses are caring and always there to help! Can't forget the BHTs always asking what they can do to help in whatever way they can."

"I cannot express enough gratitude for the support I received from Buena Vista Recovery. Katy went above and beyond in helping me navigate my court case and making pre-trial calls, ensuring I felt supported and informed every step of the way. Her dedication was truly remarkable. Mr Bacon and the entire staff played a pivotal role in changing my life for the better. Their compassion, understanding, and commitment to my recovery made all the difference. I highly recommend Buena Vista Recovery to anyone seeking help and transformation. Thank you all for everything!"

"So incredibly grateful for everyone that has been there for me throughout my recovery journey. I really miss residential lol. Not only were the staff there absolutely phenomenal and amazingly informed, but most really enjoyed what they were doing. The kitchen and food was five star most days. On top of all that, I got to have my own room and bathroom, queen size bed, vaulted ceilings, and flat screen tv. But, I am extremely grateful for the monthly Alumni events that we have. It's one of the highlights of my month every single time. Thank you Buena Vista. If I could give more stars, I so would."

"I'm so grateful for this place 💯!!! I learned so much about myself and got some great tools and the help I need. I'm out of inpatient but I'm still going there for services. I have all the love for the faculty and that place in general. They are amazing. Anyone that has anything bad to say about Buena Vista was either there for the wrong reasons or weren't ready. Thank you guys all the way around"

"I just want to say thank you to Buena Vista and the staff that work there. These people care. I can personally tell the difference between someone who just comes in for a paycheck and someone who has unconditional love and concern for every individual that they work with. From detox to out patient the staff go above and beyond to get their patients needs met! A special thanks to my case manager Katy for believing in me when I didn't even believe in myself. She met with me every day she worked and set me up for success! I'm on the next chapter of my life not only clean but finally happy. Thank you Katy!! And thank you Buena Vista. I recommend anybody needing help to at least check in for detox. Much love to you all"

Questions about Banner coverage

Does Buena Vista accept Banner?+

Yes. Banner University Family Care is in network with us, and it is the plan carried by more of the people we admit than any other. Bring the card, or just your name and date of birth, and we will confirm it on the call.

Is Banner the same as Access or AHCCCS?+

Banner University Family Care is one of the health plans that delivers AHCCCS — Arizona's Medicaid program, which nearly everyone calls Access. So yes: Banner Access, Banner Family Care and Banner University Family Care all mean the same thing here.

What does it cover?+

Medical detox and residential treatment, including the co-occurring mental health care delivered alongside them. Your room, meals and the clinical program are part of that rather than billed separately.

How long will it authorise?+

Residential stays under Medicaid commonly run between thirty and forty-five days, which is often longer than a commercial policy allows. Detox is a shorter stay, sized to what your body needs.

My coverage lapsed or was just reinstated.+

Call anyway. Eligibility moving around is completely ordinary, and plenty of people reach us within days of being reinstated. We can check where yours stands while you are on the phone.

Will Banner cover my transport to the facility?+

Access plans include a non-emergency medical transport benefit, though how easily it applies to a treatment admission varies. Raise it at the start of the call — between that benefit, a ride we arrange and family, most journeys get solved on the phone.

Will I pay anything?+

For a covered stay under an in-network Access plan, treatment is covered — there is no separate bill for the room, the meals or the therapy. If anything about your particular plan works differently we will tell you before you arrive.

What if I have Banner but you are full?+

We will tell you straight away rather than leaving you waiting, keep your file open so nothing has to be repeated, and call you when a bed comes free. If waiting is not realistic we will help you find somewhere with space now.

Start with one call. We'll take it from there.

We answer at any hour of the day or night. There is nothing you have to decide on that first call, and nothing you need to have worked out before you make it.
