About SaVida Health Biddeford
SaVida Health - Biddeford is an outpatient addiction treatment center in Biddeford, Maine. They mostly treat opioid addiction because they specialized in medication assisted treatment for opioid use disorder. However, they do treat alcohol addiction too.
Medication assisted treatment is a way to tackle both the physical and the emotional or mental components of addiction at the same time. Medications like Suboxone reduce your cravings for opioid and can gradually lower your physical dependency while keeping withdrawal symptoms at bay. Meanwhile, you get counseling to address the mental aspect of addiction.
You’ll have individual therapy and group counseling as part of your addiction treatment program here. During those sessions, you’ll address the mental and emotional issues that impact your addiction, whether that’s a co-occurring mental health condition or trauma or whatever they may be. You’ll also develop skills that will empower your recovery like learning how to better manage your emotions without drugs and alcohol and learning how to reduce stress.
There are a few aspects of the treatment here that I think are especially helpful. First, they go beyond addiction treatment and offer case management and recovery assistance to guide you through the other parts of your recovery journey like getting stable housing and a job. Second, they have peer recovery coaches, so you’ll get the wisdom and experience of people who have been through addiction and recovery. Third, they have specialized care for pregnant clients, and fourth, they have a harm reduction program here where they distribute Narcan. Finally, you have the advantage of being in the SaVida Health network which has locations throughout the East Coast and the Mid Atlantic.

Accepted Insurance
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.
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.

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.
