Our Methodology
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.
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.
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.
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.
Clients participating in a rehab aftercare program receive a variety of services designed to support their sustained sobriety and successful reintegration into their home, workplace, and community. Rehab aftercare services may include formal outpatient care, such as addiction counseling and recovery education provided in an outpatient treatment center. They may also include community-based services, including 12 step program induction, peer coaching, and vocational training. These programs are typically designed in partnership with the client's case manager.
Many recovery centers base their treatment models on 12 step programming, which emphasizes spiritual development and peer coaching. 12 step recovery is designed to help participants address the root causes of their addiction, take accountability for their choices, and let go of that over which they are powerless. Though these programs prioritize spiritual growth, religious affiliation isn't required. Participants regularly attend anonymous, free, peer-directed meetings and are mentored by a peer sponsor.
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug rehab in Idaho provides treatment for addiction to drugs. It usually includes a combination of treatment methods that can involve counseling, medication, and a variety of evidence-based therapies. Programs are designed to help individuals manage their substance use disorder long-term.
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
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.
Research has shown that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in Idaho is one of the most effective forms of therapy to treat substance use disorders and accompanying mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression. The focus of this method is to learn about and change patterns of thinking and behavior.
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.
Men and women in Idaho may choose a customized drug and alcohol treatment approach using individual therapy. This focuses your attention on the unique challenges in your life and helps you understand the triggers and stressors that increase your risk of drug use. You develop healthier coping strategies to promote sustainable sobriety.
Unlike other more coercive methods, motivational interviewing does not impose change on the client. Instead, the therapist asks questions, listens, and reflects the client's thoughts back to them. This helps the person come to their own conclusions and supports making changes on their own terms based on those conclusions.
The goal of trauma therapy is to help you mentally, emotionally, and physically heal from the effects of witnessing or experiencing a traumatic event. Your therapist helps you process the experience and develop effective coping strategies. This improves your emotional well being and your ability to function in the community.
Couples therapy provides the opportunity to discuss challenges in the relationships and learn healthy ways to work through them. Therapy may address issues such as your roles, beliefs, finances, health, substance use, and children.
During family therapy in Idaho, members have a safe space to express their feelings about the impact addiction has had on the family unit. The process helps reduce the stigma associated with mental health and enhances each member's understanding of addiction. By promoting a unified approach, family therapy helps to support the recovery journey.
Nicotine replacement therapy gives your body a small, controlled amount of nicotine to reduce withdrawal and cravings. Formats include patches, gum, and lozenges. These tools can double your chances of quitting long term.

The people here take care of you; they love you and care about your health. This place saved my life in so many ways! I am too happy that I found this fantastic place and this remarkable person.
What can I say, BHG saved my life. I was using IV every day & with the help of the entire team I haven't used since 1/20/25.. Almost an entire year! There isn't one member of the staff who isn't invested in my recovery. The doctors care immensely about our success & do so safely. The counselors advocate fiercely for us and the nurses provide a judgement free loving atmosphere as we stumble through the weeds of recovery. BHG provides a safe medical setting with counseling to dose methadone. If you are tired of all the negative things that come with opioid addiction and want your life back, then what are you waiting for!? Give them a call it'll be the best decision you've made in a long time, it certainly was for me.
I am the Operations Director for a sober living in Ada and Canyon County and I have never encountered a more unprofessional treatment center, who does not even know how to follow their own processes and guidelines. We have a resident at one of our houses who was attending treatment at BHG and are now switching treatment centers. During her time being treated by BHG we have had the resident sign not one, but TWO Releases of Information for us to call and get UA results and attendance records. I called on the ROI to get information weeks ago (after the first ROI) and they told me they couldn't tell me anything. The resident then signed another ROI. We were then told we had to submit the request for information via Fax, so I did. After over a week of waiting, I had not received an email, phone call - nothing in regards to the request of information. I called them, and they told me that they 'didn't know' when they would be able to tell me anything, if ever. Next day, the owner of our sober living calls, they give her nothing. Next day, the owner calls again - and they were completely rude, unprofessional. The woman who works admin at the front desk has zero customer service skills. They tell our owner that they cannot share any information because of HIPAA (if that's the case, why do hospitals and healthcare companies offer an ROI at all?). Our owner says we've never not been able to work with a treatment center to get information, that this is to help keep our residents safe and ensure sobriety. The whole reason for ROI's is to be able to share information and adhere to HIPAA regulations of doing so. They continue this conversation on and our owner keeps asking questions and the only response we continue to get is that they cannot share 'anything' with us. They tell us 'they don't even know the individual we're requesting information for' (we didn't even give them the name yet). I don't think this resident at our house has relapsed, but what if they had? What if they had and now they are allowing other women to be at risk. This situation is so dumbfounding to me. You can tell their level of unprofessionalism without even going to BHG in person. Their staff have no idea what is going on. They then proceed to call our resident who is a patient there, and tell HER that we keep calling (breaking HIPAA themselves). What if we had been calling about someone completely different? They also tell her we were 'mean' to them and rude and hung up. We hung up after continually refusing to give us information. This place is terrible. They don't follow any policies, nor their OWN policies. Would not recommend. I wouldn't recommend if you want to go to a place that truly cares about your recovery, I would not recommend this place to anyone that I love in my life. As a Director at a sober living, I will never recommend this place to our residents. I hear Raise the Bottom is much better.
Mostly pretty good although they made a rule that makes it so husbands can control their wives diversions. if my wife doesn’t do exactly what I say and I get called in, I can skip it and she will lose all of her take homes so now people have total control over other peoples recovery.So if you’re a couple looking for help, I would suggest raise the bottom.
Has improved quite a bit. Love the nursing staff.
