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

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Drug rehab in Connecticut provides the professional support that is often necessary to break free from drug dependency. With proper treatment, individuals can make changes that restore balance and health to their lives and achieve long-term recovery.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
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.
lgbtq-program thumbnail image
LGBTQ Program
Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Clinical Services

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.

Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.

They sent me to a psychiatrist that, while affiliated with them, did not take my insurance, causing a $170 bill. They then did not help me adjust it, and even after I paid the full amount, a got another bill.

disorganized and unprofessional and perhaps even outright cruel. routinely do not bother to return patients' phone calls. I left messages and voicemails for different therapists, kept calling for a week every day - they did not even bother to acknowledge that they got my phone calls. had to call their crisis line as a result.... Obviously I asked for a discharge... Now they are refusing to discharge me....

The reviews speak for themselves. NEVER go here. I went for over a year and it was clearly a trap. No actual help with my situation, just oh we ll throw you in a group. They tried to convince me I was chronically mentally ill and would need their services long term. I got news for you, I left a little under two months ago and this is the best I ve done in nearly two years. They suggested I stay on INJECTIONS when my issues weren t nearly that severe. This is the kind of place that exists solely to pull funding from the state and the patients that have to go here genuinely need actual help and don t know any better. The therapists are inexperienced and honestly a little clueless. I didn t realize how bad this place was until AFTER I left and saw the bigger picture. Then when I left they blew up my phone acting like I never left. Not a pleasant experience dealing with these people. And no, I don t want to talk to your Client Rights Officer, or anyone from your facility ever again. I had to plan my escape, literally. Whatever you do, just don t go here. It made me worse and I m glad I was smart enough to leave. I wanted to give it a chance, and I did. Unfortunately this wasn t it.

This location was great - group and individual sessions (Mia and Jenna), and Jeffrey was a phenomenal prescriber. They all listened and HEARD what you were saying. My one complaint - and a big one at that - was about Dana Smart. She was my child's prescriber for 2 years, and in that time on several occasions Dana did not order refills in a timely manner, did not return calls to patient or pharmacy, and did not show up for multiple zoom sessions with her patient (without prior notice) and the office did not know why. I highly recommend BHCare but steer clear of Dana Smart.

We used to love this place, but as of recently, the feeling is dwindling..We were told we would be getting a phone call on Wednesday..as of yet no phone call..what if we were in Crisis..oh wait..they probably won't come out to us..We live in Clinton..There are so many issues that we have with this place now...completely disappointing and aggravating...

Response from the owner2 years ago
Hi, we're sorry you haven't received a call back. We'll make sure someone gets back to you promptly. And you're correct, we are not the crisis provider for Clinton, but if you're ever in crisis and aren't comfortable calling the National Lifeline (9-8-8), please call our main number (203- 800-7177) press 6, and you'll be connected to a crisis clinician.
