Drug Addiction Treatment & Insurance Company?

I’ve been on narcotics for few years through pain management but want to get off the pain meds for awhile and clean myself out so I can try other pain control methods….my insurance will pay for addiction treatment but how does that work? Will I be labeled an addict through insurance company and never be able to get any pain meds again if other forms of pain control do not work? Should I do the out patient treatment and pay for it myself to avoid issues? If I go through insurance do they inform the pharmacy and then they label me too? The meds I have been on work awesome, the last 2-3 yrs my quality of life has been 75% better but I just want to take a break from the narcotics and try other methods if I can but do not want to chance not being able to get back on the old meds if I had to.
How does the insurance work in respect to addiction treatment? I am not an addict in the full meaning of the word… my body is dependent on them & I’ll get sick if stopped abruptly but addicted? No!
