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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

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.

Treatments

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

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

I have been going here over 20 years. They have recently been trying to help me improve my experience. The new therapist Margenia is very intelligent and skilled, and also cares about her clients. The director person is very condescending and patronizing, but tries to help in her own way. She calls herself "the boss," which I feel is arrogant. She seems pretty pretentious. I feel like it is more of a team effort, and no one should designate themselves as "the boss." She eventually will help you, but she is very stuck up about it. The case manager Bridget is pretty good. The receptionist Mrs. Deena is the best receptionist they have. She always goes above and beyond her call of duty. Good luck with the other receptionists, as they can almost always be very dismissive! There are only certain employees that actually care and want to help you. The others are just there to make a living, and it is obvious. There are many programs that they supposedly offer that have not even been suggested to me. They are listed on their pamphlets that they have in the lobby and at the library. I didn't know they had IOP. They have a list of case management services they offer, like on call availability 24/7! LOL. That is a lie. They have an on call phone hardly anyone knows about because they never tell anyone, but they almost never answer it! If they actually do answer it, they don't really help anything. If you don't know to ask about it, they wont tell you. For example, Tennessee Health Link, Peer Support, OnTrackTN, Student assistance program, & IOP...after 20 years, I have never been told about any of that. The program that has helped me the most, peer support, has been cut from the budget and has very little activity left. Carey Counseling is vey cheap, doesn't pay its employees very well, and will cut anything from the budget that they can. Their blood pressure machine and scale for weighing yourself has been broken for several years and never shows the correct blood pressure or weight. This is an example of how cheap they are. The new CSU in Paris is almost impossible to get any sleep at during the night. I have already told them about this, and nothing was done. When you are sleeping, there are several staff members talking very loudly during the night. It can be heard all the way in your room, even with the door closed. Some of the staff have to do chores and a certain door slams repeatedly all throughout the night while you are trying to sleep. Why don't they have a designated quiet time during sleeping hours? Why don't they do the chores during the daytime? Other than that, the main benefit of the new CSU is that you are not required to be homicidal or suicidal to be admitted. This is good for preventing these from eventually happening through medication adjustments. They say they have group therapy, but they never do. It is a lie. All they do is feed you and give you medicine, make sure you're not dead, and then you basically get completely ignored the rest of the time you're there. You can also hear them discussing your case at the nurse's desk. If you're going to talk about my file, please do it where I can't hear you. I don't need to hear inappropriate comments when I'm trying to sleep. At least they provide absolutely everything you could possibly need, so don't pack a bag, because you can't bring anything of your own, except medicine and cigarettes.

I've been very fortunate to have the best Dr. I feel up at CC,I also have another Lady that works there that is like a Counciler that I talk to but when it comes to the front office, They aren't too Friendly at all and if things go wrong They get blamed on others that aren't there to take up for Themselves,everytime I leave there I triple check that everything is right with my medications because it seems like everytime I go to pick up my medicine or call and check on the price,something's been messed up,They are a good place if They would treat Their Patients how They want to be treated,like Today I know for a fact I was lied to as a Patient about what had happened to my medicine and if it wouldn't of been for me taking it into my own hands and calling the only Woman that could fix Their mistake then it wouldn't have been fixed and I would have went the whole Weekend without my medicine but Thank God the Woman I know that I called at the other CC office is a very nice Lady and always takes care of things when They get messed up,the other Lady at Camdens office told me that She had already contacted this Lady this Morning but this Morning this problem hasn't even came up yet, so right there I was led to but again Thank God this Woman helped because I called Her myself and She fixed it within 20 minutes,so Thank You so much too Mrs.G,You know who You are if You see this and also Mrs.M,that I talk to about every 3 months at Camdens office Thank You too and also Thank You Dr.W,.
