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.

Per session payment lets you pay for each treatment at the time of service. You may also pay for a certain number of sessions up front and then pay for more if needed. This format allows you to tailor the financial investment to your specific needs and avoid having a large lump sum payment due at the end of the treatment program.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient
The University of Michigan Adult Inpatient Psychiatry Program at U-M Hospital provides diagnostic evaluations and comprehensive, individualized treatment for patients with serious psychiatric illnesses. They realize that patients may come to their unit for care under difficult circumstances, and they are dedicated to working together to facilitate a healthy and effective process of healing.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.
outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
heart-hands iconIntervention Services
Prevention and Early Intervention Groups providing additional support for adolescents at higher risk, such as, those who have parents using substances, those who have experimented with substances, and/or those who have family or peer difficulties. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict’s behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
They work collaboratively with patients during their stay to plan for their continued treatment once they leave the hospital. When the time comes for patients to return home, they help patients incorporate ongoing psychiatric management into their treatment plans. They work closely with outpatient programs and clinics – both at U-M and elsewhere – to smooth the transition from the hospital to follow-up care. They also provide information and resources to help patients better manage their illnesses on their own and with the help of family and friends. Appointments with outpatient provider(s) will be made before a patient leaves the hospital.

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

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

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.

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

The Michigan Medicine Comprehensive Eating Disorders Program provides individualized, compassionate, evidence-based care for patients age 8-24 with eating disorders. Interdisciplinary services are provided by Adolescent Medicine, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Nutrition, Child and Family Life, and Social Work across the spectrum of care including outpatient, intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, inpatient medical, and inpatient psychiatric 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.

RAHS is unique in that its’ social workers can offer counseling services not just to the individual, but to families as well. In general, family therapy sessions take place during the school day, and involve the identified patient and his/her family members. Parent sessions are also available. Family therapy seeks to address issues that affect the patient and other family members as well.

RAHS social workers offer group therapy sessions, designed to address specific issues that small groups of students may be experiencing. These issues include, but are not limited to, depression, anxiety, and anger management. Group therapy often utilizes principles from Cognitive behavioral therapy and/or dialectical behavioral therapy to address specific psycho-social issues. Groups are offered periodically during the school year, and often cater to site specific needs.

RAHS social workers offer a variety of individual therapeutic interventions including, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), interpersonal therapy, supportive therapy, motivational interviewing and more. Individual therapy sessions are designed to address a variety of psycho-social issues. They typically take place over several 1-on-1 sessions between student and social worker, and usually last between 30-60 minutes per session.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

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.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

They have banned teens for absences from attending school functions even with medical disclosure. One student has a life threatening medical problem. What's up with that? So wrong on many counts! Time to change. Why have a medical form on file if not respected. Very disrespectful of the teens! These kids have good grades too! How do you think the teens feel. They are already fighting an illness they can't control, and then they are punished for it. Also, I understand this was implemented this year, so do it on a go forward not previous year when the policy was not in effect.

4 out of 5....office woman leaves alot to be desired. Mrs. Kelly or Kelly in the Office is very disgruntled....she gives myself and my son a hard time at every turn. He had a Dentist appointment and needed to check out a bit early to make the appointment. I told him just notify the office. She insisted my grown son....(18 yrs old.....can sacrifice his life in this nations military.) have me call and tell them. When he tried explaining his age of 18 makes him an adult.....she tried to tell him.."Your father files for you on his taxes"......NOW WAIT JUST A MINUTE.....what do my financials have to do with a grown mans ability to tell someone when he has to leave early or otherwise? I had to call the School Board and speak to the super attendant....who was appalled at the thought of this woman mentioning a parents financials. The superintendent was great...everything done. So today I asked my son to have my name removed from the automated call list. He is 18 and has been since December. He needs these calls and reminders ...on snow days, half days, etc. I dont need to be called at work for simple reminders that are rather frequent...and border on spam. So he goes in the office today to return a book and have the phone thing rearranged. At which point Ms. Kelly or Kelly or Mrs. Kelly starts right off again with refusing to change it. Again my son reminds her of his age and she ...AGAIN brings up my taxes and who pays what to who. SORRY PARENTS TAXES ARE OUT OF BOUNDS AND ARE IRRELEVANT TO A RESPECTABLE GROWN MAN CHANGING HIS EMERGENCY CARD INFO. This woman not only sits in the office behind a desk at my sons school...and talks to parents with complete disrespect and an awful nasty tone....NOW ...how do you think she is speaking to our kids? The folks in the office need to re-evaluate her position desperately...power trips are not student friendly....these young adults have alot on their plates...and having a young lady treating them badly isnt helpful to attitude or environment...they are turning 18 and being expected to pay taxes, get jobs, enroll for the DRAFT , and be responsible adults. The folks at the schools should be teaching respect, responsibility, and encouraging them to be capable young adults.....THAT DOESNT HAPPEN WHEN YOU TREAT THEM LIKE 7th graders!! If you want these young folks to stay in school speak to them with some mutual respect...AND THE PARENTS....and things will be more comfortable for everyone. Dont sit in that office and talk down to folks and be condescending to parents who call. So again...I called the superintendents office. We spoke about the same things as last time....all is good. My question is...if she is this difficult for the parents and kids to deal with ....over something as simple as changing a few phone numbers around.....one has to wonder how many other road blocks her poor attitude has created for these kids. If he stands up to her in the office and insist she does what he knows should be done without issue....then he gets suspended...so she just talks to them however she sees fit....and the parents too. I will be preparing for a future school board meeting at which point Ms Kelly will be the topic of my time allowed. Unacceptable behavior from an a public employee ...who is suppose to be teaching and leading kids in positive, productive manners. My son has excellent attendance..if not perfect...also is A, B Honor Student...and has 2 jobs and pays taxes...he is literally her PEER. She is no more an adult than him. She works no harder than he. She has no moral right...or legal right to be so rude inconsiderate and disrespectful to anyone for any reason. I am hopeful...at least for other parents sake...that the position gets filled with someone who is a social butterfly and that can treat folks in a nice positive manner....that smiles and does what she can to help parents and students alike. Thats what it is suppose to be about. #TEAMWORK #RAISINGTHENEXTGENERATION #KINDNESS #HELPFULNESS #APPRECIATIVE

I was here for a year, the teachers are decent and depending on who you have they can be super scrict with phones. The lunches can be awful but everyone love chicken days.The drama department and library are extremely underfunded and they don't have many electives. Most of the work is pretty easy but the Senior Project is murder. Lots of people who love the Hard Rock genre so if you like that then you'll make a ton of friends.
