***5 yrs ago.*****If you dont mind dealing with a provider on a computer screen, then it's not an issue. However, 85% of the time, you will not be seeing someone in person. You will be brought into a room and sit in front of a monitor and speak with whoever wherever. There is not a lot of consistency with who you speak with also. That being said, the staff is friendly, and they do have a genuine feel about them when speaking with a live person that is. The process is fairly quick and simple enough that it makes it a little easier for those who are in dire need of gaining stability in order to begin getting better.***************************************************************************((Update 5 years later.)I'm just getting an email stating 2 weeks ago. There was a response to my review of 5 years. My applause to a business that now has an on-site provider and so obviously bettering themselvesso their clients might be able to easier. If true, then it's outstanding news. Other than that, however, I could not comment further. As, I now am ignorant of the practices of thisbbusiness at hand. I will applaud Ideal for this new revelation none the less. As am sure it will indeed help fellow sisters and brothers try to fight the good fight. One day at a time. Thank you

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient

Clients engaged in an outpatient rehab program receive regular therapeutic care while continuing to live at home. Outpatient care is designed for clients in more advanced stages of recovery who no longer require intensive supervision. Many clients in outpatient treatment continue to work or attend school, while receiving counseling and education during the evening, night, or weekend. Levels of care vary based on clients' needs, ranging from partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) to standard outpatient programming.

Medically Assisted Detox

The process of ridding your body of addictive substances under the 24/7 medical supervision is known and medically assisted detox. In an inpatient setting, a team of licensed medical professionals may include doctors, nurses, therapists, and clinical experts. The team will monitor the physical effects of withdrawal and help keep you as safe and comfortable as possible throughout the process.

Treatments

Alcohol use disorder (AUD) encompasses the conditions often referred to as alcoholism, alcohol abuse, alcohol dependence, and alcohol addiction. If someone is addicted to alcohol, they continue to drink, even when experiencing negative consequences. But alcohol rehab in Alaska can help you overcome alcohol dependency. Treatment typically involves evidence-based therapies and support groups, but may also include medications to treat alcohol addiction.

During drug rehab in Alaska, you'll receive a combination of medical and psychotherapeutic treatments that are designed to treat drug dependency. The goal of drug rehab is to break this dependency and help you develop the skills to maintain a drug-free life.

Opioid Addiction

In Alaska, substance abuse treatment programs provide a full spectrum of addiction care, which may include detox, residential, and intensive outpatient programs. These programs incorporate evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), trauma-focused therapy, and mindfulness-based therapy. You'll learn emotional regulation skills, new coping strategies, and develop a supportive recovery community, which are essential components of long-term recovery.

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.

Program For Men

Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.

Program For Women

Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.

Clinical Services

People in Alaska seeking individual therapy for drug addiction receive personalized support to explore the root causes of their substance abuse. Your therapist guides you in developing healthier coping mechanisms and setting realistic goals. Your therapist also uses a customized approach to improve the effectiveness of the treatment and promote sustainable recovery.

Doctor Greg and Todd are great. The nurses also are wonderful. If I remember all the names I'd put them in the survey. Credit department so far has been great and working with me.

They get the job done, so to speak. But do not hold your breath for your prescription to actually process that same day, and don't expect them to have much sympathy the entire process slow if you're just getting started

Thank you so much for your kind feedback! We wish you continued success in recovery.

I was prescribed medication and at Walgreens I got denied two days in a row saying that the ideal options provider is not approved, I m feeling severe withdrawals and have called ideal options several times they say that they would fix it and to go the next day and still the provider is still unauthorized, I am forced to purchase drugs illegally because these guys don t have their providers legit! On weekends there s no pharmacy open and I am left without my prescribed medications, definitely on my way to file a complaint in federal court for medical negligence and deliberate indifference under civil rights amendments, I definitely got charged for service that is not being rendered, and in the medical field that is highly discriminatory and illegal!

Response from the owner1 year ago

I'm very sorry to hear this was not the case and you have had to jump through hoops.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, we truly appreciate you voicing your concerns.

I love this place because everyone is kind and polite. When you have appointments you just sign in using a kiosk or electroinc pad. They don t judge you and respect you no matter the condition your in. Everything is quick and they keep in contact with you via text. They ll text you your next appointment, how your appointment went, and when your prescription was sent to the pharmacy. The only downfall to the place is the parking because Starbucks is next door and they re drive through goes through the parking lot to there and it can be a pain in the butt to get out.

Thank you for sharing your insight and experience! We appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback and wish you nothing but continued success with our program.

I went there once 3yrs ago and got in very quickly. Staff were friendly. But now, my roommate is going there and sees a different clinician each time- inconsistent TX plans with each provider. And he NEVER gets his meds on time so he's running out at least once a week.. sometimes for days on end. Today is the 5th day he hasn't had his meds, despite going to the pharmacy every day to inquire. Either the pharmacy can't reach the provider after they've failed to order it, or the pharmacy fails in getting/ filling it. Most times it's due to poor communication between the provider and the pharmacy, or the provider failing to place the order, and then the pharmacy's inability to reach the provider for clarification/ the order. They are closed every Fri thru Sun. When a client calls at any time, they get an answering service out of state, who then attempts to contact the local office. They are rarely successful. I don't know how anyone could stay clean this way. It seems that ensuring the client can get his medication would be the #1 priority of this clinic, but it's not. Then they scold him for having dirty UA'S!? They are failing him-

Kelly, We are so sorry to hear that this was your experience. Can you please contact us through our website so we can investigate this situation? https://www.idealoption.com/contact-us

Quisha Shelton

This is the 3rd time I have had to wait more than 24 hours to get my prescription(which I still have not received).I had to change my first provider do to her lack in my recovery.To be honest it's not many other places that offer you help.I also keep being transferred multiple time to the staff that have no idea what's going on.Just today I had 4 different ppl tell me 3 different things.I just wish they will be a little more helpful to those in recovery.everyone don't have a support system.So ppl need to mindful how they talk and treat those in recovery.

So far so good! I called today and figured I'd be on a waitlist and have to deal with struggling through until then, but got in the same day! We will see how my review either stays or lowers as I go on....
