Pretty decent hospital. I would come here sooner than CHI. If needing an OB definitely go see Peter Klemin as he is amazing and truly cares. I highly recommend NOT seeing Megan Miller OBGYN for prenatal visits unless you want non-stop health problems(have proof of medical neglect). Definitely not a coincidence that my pregnancies after her with Peter Klemin did 100 better. I would not refer a dead dog to her.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient rehabs offer clients the freedom to remain in their home and community while receiving treatment. Many facilities also provide transitional support for clients who are stepping down from intensive inpatient care. The primary treatment modalities for most outpatient programs include addiction counseling, recovery-focused life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT) for alcohol and/or opioid dependency. Integrative facilities also provide holistic therapies, such as meditation, acupuncture, and massage.
inpatient iconInpatient
Inpatient rehabs primarily serve clients who have just completed detox, those who are in crisis and at an elevated risk of relapse, and those who have a strong history of relapse. They provide a highly structured and supportive environment and intensive supervision. Residents engage in extensive addiction counseling. Many programs also offer recovery-focused life skills training to support clients' sustained sobriety. Holistic therapies, such as yoga and meditation, are available at many facilities.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Clients engaged in a rehab aftercare program may be receiving outpatient treatment or they may have already been discharged from formal treatment after completing intensive inpatient and/or outpatient care. These programs are designed to support clients' long-term sobriety through a robust continuum of care customized for clients' unique and evolving needs. Peer coaching, career counseling, relapse prevention, and 12 step program induction are among the most common rehab aftercare services.
12-step icon12-Step
Recovery models based on 12 step programming combine intensive peer support with an emphasis on personal growth. Participants are expected to select a peer sponsor to mentor them through the recovery journey. 12 step recovery strategies are rooted in spiritual principles to promote self-compassion, acceptance, and accountability. Regular attendance at group meetings, which are free, anonymous, and open to the public, is expected. Specialized formats, including programs for seniors, youth, and families, are available in most communities.
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
In a partial hospitalization program (PHP), you'll experience intensive rehab with the ability to return home each day. PHP treatment is recommended for those with moderate to severe addictions that don't require 24/7 care. A partial hospitalization program serves as an alternative to inpatient hospitalization or as a step-down option. Throughout the week, you'll attend meetings for 4-8 hours each day, up to 3-5 days a week, for an average of 90 days. Medication management, evidence-based therapies, and relapse prevention are typical components of PHP treatment.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Medically assisted detox involves weaning your body off alcohol and drugs in a medically supervised environment. This is often the first step in the addiction recovery process. Abruptly stopping intake of alcohol and some drugs (like benzodiazepines and opioids) can cause uncomfortable side effects. In severe cases, withdrawal symptoms can even be dangerous. To minimize risks and discomfort, a team of medical professionals will monitor you 24/7, and may provide medications if necessary to ease potential withdrawal symptoms.

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

teen-program thumbnail image
Teen Program
Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
military-program thumbnail image
Military Program
Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

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.

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.

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.

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.

Billing department is atrocious. For a 'doctor' to talk to you for less than two minutes they charged well over $1300 AFTER insurance. Sure wish I could get paid that kind of money and not be of any help to anyone! Sorry but I can only send you thieves so much a month. Can't give you what I don't have! And you people wonder why no one wants to go to the doctor. Also your nursing staff needs to learn to respect family and patient boundaries. And your nurses on the 4th floor are horrible nurses!

Despite having no patient / doctor relationship with me in the last 4 years they jump shark and share/sell my info to Cologuard to send me a "free kit." I dumped Sanford years ago and want nothing to do with them. If you want a stool sample I should leave one in CEOs office.

This is not about any of the staff or Dr's they were awesome. It is because we had to wait over 20 hours in the ER for a room to open up so my wife could be admitted. This wasn't in the waiting room, it was inside a bed in the ER. This reminded me of living back in Los Angeles. Like I said, the staff were awesome. It has to be very hard on them dealing with this huge over crowding disaster. If people are thinking about going to the ER for something that's not a real emergency, try the walk in clinic. There was a 12 year old next to us in the ER for 2 stitches on his hand. The walk in can do that. They can do so much there. It would help taking some of stress off ER staff for real emergencies.

Edit 2:Kind of ironic that if you call the patients relation office number put below, it just goes to voicemail, so even that department is short-staffed. I feel really bad for the workers there, they must be having to work significantly longer hours since there are not many of them.EDIT:So after I directly called again, I must have gotten a different nurse or something because magically now I can be seen on October 11th. It went from "We have a hold on scheduling and we have no clue when we can get you in" to "Oh yeah we have openings on October 11th. There is no scheduling hold"I would greatly appreciate getting a chance to talk to a patient relations specialist because this is outrageous.EXTREME STAFFING SHORTAGE:My doctor informed me that there is a non-zero chance I have either: a chronic, permanently damaging condition or a form of cancer (that I am at high risk for due to genetics). He sent over a referral for me to get additional testing about a month ago and I called that department to see if there were any updates. The lady that answered stated that their scheduling is completely put on hold because over half of their providers have quit in the past 6 months. When I asked what my next steps are or what the ballpark estimate would be to be seen, I was told the following: "I have no idea, the scheduling is put on hold so I can't even give any form of estimate. We will call you when we can."My insurance only covers Sanford so I have no choice except to wait it out and hope that it isn't cancer. I'm unbelievably shocked that they didn't even recommend going to another Sanford hospital in the state and that they didn't provide me with ANY resources/answers. I'm kind of at a loss for what to do next but I definitely feel let down by the staff and administration here.

I have not waited in an ER for so long. Ive been here for almost 30 years and never seen this before. I haven't been in the ER for maybe 9 mns. I fell ill so I went to the Sandford ER and waited 3.4 hrs, so left. I went back two days later under my doctors orders. I waited 5hrs! The elderly lady I was next to was there 2hrs before me. We experienced three rounds of the place bring crowed. It seemed like there were more visitors than patients going to the back. There were so many visitors going in and out of the back ER door. I seen over four people going to the back with one woman. Ambulances pulling in left and right only for them patients to be put in a wheelchair and put in the ER waiting room for only God knows for how long! The people behind the glass said this isn't a walk in clinic like what? We know that! How do you know how long people been here? and why do your back staff decide who gets seen and/or who waits for eternity. There is no organized system here. I really hope those ladies were seen because 20 people went in before them especially a woman dancing around in her chair eating chicken got in before them! How can this be fixed? How do you know how long a person been waiting to be seen? How do you get on the priority list?

Went to ER 3 days ago. I need a hip replacement. I injured my hip and excruciating pain. They gave me some toradol. Which does nothing except give you a headache and the taste of rubbing alcohol. I haven't slept since. Severe pain. I went to the er over 4 hours ago and I watched everyone in the room come and go twice over. Several of the people who beat me were happily joking and laughing in whatever language they spoke in their country. As I sat uncomfortably through lunch and into the afternoon until I left due to hunger and unbearable pain sitting there. Unfortunately i have marketplace insurance so I can only go to sanford. Welcome to the 3rd world.
