Accepted Insurance

BayCare Health – Morton Plant Hospital works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Treatments

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Programs

Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

ECT is a form of treatment in which controlled electric currents are passed through the brain, sometimes causing short seizures. Treatments are done under general anesthesia. ECT appears to change brain chemistry for the better, and has been shown to provide fast and sometimes dramatic improvements in severe mental health conditions that can exist alongside addiction, including depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and suicidality. ECT is also often used by those who prefer it to taking medication.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

Just discharged today. Writing review while memory is fresh.I found 95% of the staff to be just fine! They were laid back and funny. I appreciated that.The facility was horrible. Beds that are so broken down you basically are sleeping on a hard plastic thing. No real door to the bathroom. It's foam and open at the top and bottom like a public restroom stall. I overheard staff talking about them shutting down the unit I was in soon for renovation because of black mold, mold they had known about since 2014!! They intentionally keep the temperature in the 60's and almost everybody was freezing all the time. Staff frequently wore jackets during their shifts even. They place ankle monitoring bracelets on everyone. I don't understand since it's a locked unit anyways. Felt like an animal.And y'all need to stop with that "Jesus loves you" shit. I have my religious preferences clearly set to atheist on my chart (you even confirmed with me upon admission!) and did not appreciate that.If it wasn't for your amazing weekend staff, I'd be looking into lawsuits.

i just got discharged from this place, and i wanted to give my honest opinion on this.some of the nurses were nice, and i loved certain techs, but overall i have to give this a 2/5 rating. we were not allowed to talk to other patients, all we did was sit and watch tv for hours straight, we did not participate in ANY group therapy, and they still expected us to behave and enjoy our visit there. i expect that this isn t my last visit here, but i hope you guys put in the effort to actually do some activities that will help your patients instead of making them sit and watch tv.

Hello, at the moment I have my daughter in that place, and the truth is she told me that she doesn't like the food, but it is part of the place, as I told her, they do activities, and other things, and I see that it helps her to be there, there is already taking his medications, and the truth is I think he learned his lesson.

i was a patient back here in 2021, so this may not be as accurate as today. however, the reviews i read from over the years seem to be exactly the same as my experience. we were sat in a common room, watching TV for about 5-8 hours a day. we d see the therapist for less than five minutes a day, and received little to no group therapy or any sort of help.another thing to note was the fact that the whole week there, a boy with autism was kept in his room for my entire visit, occasionally screaming and retaliating against nurses, obviously not in an environment suitable for him. every other time i walked past his room, he d be restrained and being injected with a sedative.whenever in the common room, some patients would try and make conversation, which would be quickly followed by a nurse shushing or yelling to be quiet. i don t find how connecting with your peers is unacceptable, but sitting in silence watching property brothers for 6 hours is an acceptable form of therapy???

CHOOSE THIS PATH WITH GREAT CONSIDERATION!!This place is a machine. The easiest way to describe this place and the only way you should view it is as a robot with soft gloves, that moves your loved ones through an automated staff and drops them the moment their responsabiluties are checked off on a list. Do not take it out on the staff. They are an emotionless machine with a smiley face stapled over their tormented face that has had to deal with some of the worst people, parents and horrible outcomes that only their profession can handle. They have to be that way or the job will eat their souls.To the staff, I get it but even a machine can be compassionate. I could see your compassion ends the moment you check that box on your checklist. It's a wonder we have a mental health crisis in this country when we have emotionally destroy people triaging and treating mentally destroyed people. The health care in America is disgusting. And I haven't even thought what this is going to cost me! Mentally, physically and financially.Chose this path with great consideration!

Staff is rude & they didn t give me medication for 3 days I was withdrawing & I was vomiting & had uncontrollable diarrhea & their staff nurse Rebecca yelled in my face told me I was doing too much & raised her hand to hit me also I was isolated in a room due to me having these horrible symptoms Rebecca yelled & said you re worst then a dog I told them I need professional help once again Rebecca yelled how much she couldn t stand me & that if I shut up maybe I would get what I needed. Rebecca also said how she hated my guts because her boyfriend left her for a young Spanish girl like me & I reminded her about her. They left me without showering for days I felt disgusted & had rashes. I feel & hit my head is when they finally rushed me to the hospital the staff questioned if I really had fallen & Jackie also know as kitty said yes & demonstrated how I fell & need urgent care. The only people that looked out for me & took care of me one on one was Jackie & Calvin they would constantly ask Calvin if they could take over watching & caring for me & Calvin said no & I ll say no always. Calvin told me that if anyone else watches me that they would harm me & I didn t deserve the way I was being treated. Patients her are overly medicated & yelled at for asking questions the nurse & staff didn t want to be bothered. This place needs to be shut down & Rebecca & the staff along side of her as well fired!

I was here for a short time as a patient, I want to start off with the fact that they will keep people in their medical gowns for so long in those freezing temperatures they have in there which felt like torture for me and a lot of the other patients there with me.My second complaint would be that there are hardly any books or activities there besides watching the TV. A lot of the movies played were psychological thrillers, and very gory violent films (I really don t think that is the correct environment for such movies), and I don t understand the good that sitting around all day watching the tv is doing for anyone there.The food is prison grade food, and they told us we had 30 minutes to eat our meals but we were rushed to eat in 15 min.I am a slow eater because it physically hurts me to scarf up my food.There is also a sheet on the wall telling us what time we had group activities and outdoor time but we never had either. Why have that sheet up if it is not followed?The time that everyone spends with the Dr. in counseling is about 5 min per day Now with all this said, how is this type of community supposed to provide us with the help we were taken there to get?One good thing I will say is that the nurses were very nice to me and I do appreciate that but the management has to improve. Or you re just sending people who need help back home with nothing but the required time spent there to sign them away and wash your hands of them.
