This place is a joke! Still waiting after two hours. My son is a type 1 diabetic who is throwing up. Signs of dka. But no worries from the front staff at check in. They didn't check his keystones at check in? And why not? DKA is a life-threatening complication of diabetes that can occur in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. And this is a emergency room? Joke!

Location

Accepted Insurance

Cox Medical Center Branson 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.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

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

child-program thumbnail image
Child Program
The providers who specialize in the children's rehab space understand the specialized needs that this population faces. School-based and social services such as tutoring and family counseling are often central to treatment. Child programs may also address the needs of youth experiencing substance abuse in the home, including a parent's or sibling's addiction.
seniors-program thumbnail image
Seniors Program
Nearly one million adults age 65 and older live with a substance use disorder. Treatment providers who specialize in senior care understand the social, psychological, and physical effects of aging and how they relate to recovery. They can help clients address particular challenges and risks they may face as they get older such as overdosing and medication interactions and dependencies.
hearing-impaired-program thumbnail image
Hearing Impaired Program
A sensory disability, such as hearing impairment, can compound the challenges of addiction recovery. Drug rehabs that are specially designed to accommodate the needs of persons with hearing impairments will include special accessibility features and accommodations to make treatment as comfortable and effective as possible. This may include access to American Sign Language interpreters.
hiv-aids-program thumbnail image
HIV/AIDS Program
HIV/AIDS programs support disease prevention and management in high-risk individuals in recovery. Individuals who engage in intravenous drug use and other addictive behaviors are at a higher risk of becoming infected with HIV. Rehab centers that specialize in treating this population typically have a high number of nurses, physicians, and psychiatrists on staff who can make sure both their medical and mental health needs are met.

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.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

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.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

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.

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.

Rooms are cramped, there is no privacy. It is designed for two patients, where only a curtain separates each one. No privacy. Floors are dirty, I mean I get it is a hospital so people come and go, but hygiene is vital. However, the staff was so nice, empathetic, humorous, an ... Read More

I fell and broke my leg. Everyone there was wonderful! They took me right in and had me in and out in less than 2 hours. They were extremely nice and congenial. I'm from out of town and wasn't sure what to expect.

Obviously it's okay if you absolutely have nowhere else to go. But as far as needing the ER, be prepared to spend an hour sitting there with your pouring blood from your eyes or anything, and when they get you back to a room in the yard be prepared for another an hour or more meeting two additional nurses three students and the insurance lady and still waiting and waiting and waiting . You can watch all the nurses sit around, giggling, I even sat in the room and listened to a nurse talking about new office chairs and how they would be more comfortable for legs and how she tried to buy new shoes and thought that would work and so on and so forth and all they did was sit there and talk about what they were going to buy. And I know the nurses aren't the doctors but then they could do something to let me know if I'm wasting my time here or not I could have drove to Springfield and been seen and already been on my way back home. it's so frustrating it makes you crazy before u even see a damn Dr.

Worst hospital ever. If you want to live or not get a weird disease from a minor infliction, go to a hospital in Springfield. I scratched my cornea, thus they charged me for a covid, rsv and flu tests. Do any of those have to do with the eyes?!? Then they charged me $300. And if you're uninsured, before you get the bill in the mail, they automatically send it to a collect agency. No they do not help those who are really in need.

Don't go to this hospital. My family member went to this hospital and had sepsis so bad that they were prepping to life flight him to another hospital and THEN instead of doing that, as the doctor suggested, they waited until he was stable 5 hours later and threw him out the door like a piece of trash in the middle of the night because he didn't have insurance or money. He was so ill that he couldn't even stand on his own. This hospital is the lowest of the low and if I could, I'd give them a -5 review.

My experience is a tad confusing and unprofessional. My mother fell on Monday 8/12/24 called 911 and was brought to Cox..Her primary is Mercy..Yet, there is not a hospital in Branson. All good ...I thought...She was admitted to a private room.( really good insurance)..Had a sitter 24/7..Still all good...She has a UTI with alot of confusion and couldn't get up are walk without help..Thank You sitters!!! Everyday I asked the status and the ETA when she could go home so I can arrange Homecare ect..No answers...Wednesday I stopped by to check on her and speak with the social worker to see if a nurse ect have been scheduled for her return home thats when I found out she was being discharged cause she didn't have a medical illness anymore.. And they needed the room for another patient...They called me and left messages on my cell while I was at work. No Cox info came up so I didn't answer..Guess my bad..not!! Question ,if she is all good why is she still taking antibiotics for UTI? Trust me she is still confused and medical illness is not over...She is 85 and has been paying for insurance just for this reason, yet I feel is refused care because they were tired of taking her to bathroom ALOT!!! Literally I felt they were kicking her out!!! Room 142..Now I'm rushing around to get homecare so I don't loose my job..I can't leave her alone she could become confused and fall again.Thanks for reading...Really sad she was treated this way..Once again the sitters were great!!!! not looking for responses just needed to share...Thanks.

This has to be the number one hospital where it's staff, front to back, have the best attitude and greatest bedside manners. I can not grasp why this place only has the amount of stars that it does. I almost want the folks who left bad reviews to go to the other hospitals that I've been to, because I couldn't say anything negative about these folks at Cox Medical.I know that reviews don't necessarily make or break most places/businesses and I understand most folks probably don't even read reviews much, but I needed to take the time to get this out there somehow, some way.I wish I could bring this hospital and staff back home with me so I could share them with all of Texas.I wish the world could experience good folks like these when in need - everywhere.I digress.Just know one thing; I know good people.. This hospital is GOOD PEOPLE.Professional and kind hearted.Thank you.

While this is a small and very confusing hospital to maneuver, my husband got very good care for 3 very serious health issues in a complicated emergency situation 3.5 hours away from home.We weren t expecting much but the doctors were very knowledgeable and thorough and took the proper precautions because my husband was on chemo.We had mostly very nice and professional nurses but one in particular, Tonya, was beyond phenomenal! She went above and beyond every single day of our 5 day stay.Cafeteria hours and confusing hallways were our only complaints, but in terms of care our experience was very good for a small town hospital.
