Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient programs are designed for clients who are medically stable and not at an elevated risk of relapse, including those who have already completed inpatient care. Outpatient programs typically advance clients' established treatment plans, offering continuing addiction counseling and recovery education. Clients who enter outpatient care immediately following detox may also receive medical and mental health assessments and personalized treatment plans. Most outpatient rehabs provide multiple levels of care to align with clients' unique needs.

Rehab aftercare programs offer customized, wraparound support for clients in the maintenance phase of recovery. Many clients enroll in drug rehab immediately after completing intensive inpatient or residential care. Services encompass outpatient treatment but often extend long beyond the completion of a formal recovery program and typically include a variety of medical, mental health, and social service programs. Peer coaching, relapse prevention, 12 step program induction, and related services are commonly available.

Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) facilitate clients' sustained sobriety through high-level care aligned with their evolving needs. Clients engage in multiple treatment sessions per week, typically receiving between nine and 20 hours of outpatient care weekly. The frequency and intensity of treatment gradually decreases as clients stabilize. Many intensive outpatient rehabs offer a variety of services, including addiction counseling, recovery-focused life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT). Evidence-based complementary therapies are also common.

Recovery models based on 12 step programs feature extensive peer coaching and emphasize personal growth as a key to sustained sobriety. Regular attendance at 12 step meetings, which are anonymous, free, and available daily, is expected. The 12 steps of recovery are based on spiritual principles and support participants in addressing the root causes of their disease, accept responsibility for their choices, and accept that which is beyond their control. Self-selected sponsors provide one-one-mentoring.

A partial hospitalization program (PHP), also known as day treatment, allows you to receive rehab-level care while living at home. PHP treatment requires a minimum of 20 hours of treatment each week for an average of 90 days. PHP treatment plans can vary depending on your needs but typically includes relapse prevention, medication management, and evidence-based therapies, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Most insurance providers fully or partially cover PHP treatment.

Telehealth in Massachusetts allows patients to receive care in one location from a specialist who is at a separate location. This allows the patient to save time and money on healthcare visits. The added convenience can make treatment more accessible.

Treatments

Social and family support systems are crucial during and after treatment of any kind.

Programs

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress.

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.

Clinical Services

Group therapy is a safe space for participants to share their stories and experiences within a confidential and judgment free environment. You have the opportunity to openly discuss your difficulties and create a network of community support that can extend long after group therapy sessions end.

Therapists in Massachusetts offer individual therapy in a confidential setting to help you explore the complex factors that have contributed to your drug addiction. Using a tailored approach, your therapist supports you and utilizes evidence based treatment modalities to help you develop healthier thought patterns and behaviors. This builds a foundation for enduring sobriety.

During family therapy, the therapist works with every member of the family unit to understand the role they play in their loved one's addiction. By addressing these patterns, family members learn healthier ways to interact with each other and contribute to a more effective recovery journey for the family member who is addicted.

Trauma therapy addresses the psychological impact of experiencing a traumatic event. You can also experience mental and emotional injury after witnessing a trauma. By identifying what triggers those responses and developing effective coping mechanisms, you can rebuild a sense of safety and trust in your environment.

If you are experiencing intense, negative emotions, dialectical behavior therapy can help you learn how to regulate painful emotions and manage the interpersonal situations that generate them. This method is often used during substance use treatment in Massachusetts to help you develop better coping skills and avoid relapse.

During experiential therapy, clients process their emotions and situations from the inside out. This is different than the outside in approach of talk therapies. Experiential methods include art, music, equine therapy, and drama, which allow creative expression and personal interaction.

Four principles are key to motivational interviewing in Massachusetts. First, the therapist offers empathy for the client's feelings and experiences. Second, they encourage the client to believe in themselves and their ability to change. Third, the therapist refrains from imposing their own viewpoints. Lastly, the therapist helps the client identify discrepancies in their circumstances and future goals.

The best time for nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) in Massachusetts is the moment you quit. You can start this therapy right away to lessen cravings and withdrawal symptoms, so the process is easier. Research has shown that NRT increases the chances of success. Options include patches, gum, inhalers, sprays, and lozenges.

Recreational therapy helps you as you recover from drug and alcohol addiction in Massachusetts by giving you structured activities to improve your physical and mental health.

Fantastic group of staff and clinicians at Elevate. I appreciate Cindy who helped guide me through the process, and staff members like Dave and Carrie helped support me through a difficult situation. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs the help.

My experience with Elevate Recovery in Billerica was extremely disappointing. In my opinion, the program operated far below the level of professionalism I expected from a PHP/IOP treatment setting. During intake, I was told that the intake staff member was “pretty sure” that most group facilitators were master’s-level clinicians. Once I started attending, that did not appear to be true. Some facilitators were not master’s-level clinicians, and some, to my understanding, did not even have college degrees. Peer support and recovery staff can absolutely have an important role in treatment, but patients should receive accurate information about who is providing services and what their qualifications are. The groups were often repetitive and poorly prepared. There were multiple occasions where staff appeared to sit down at the beginning of group and come up with basic discussion questions on the spot. Instead of feeling like a structured clinical curriculum with clear objectives, many sessions felt improvised and designed simply to fill time. The building had “No Vaping” signs posted throughout it, yet clients routinely vaped indoors. More concerning, I personally observed staff vaping inside the building, including during sessions. It is difficult to take program rules seriously when staff do not consistently follow them. The Zoom setup was also very poor. Audio quality was frequently so bad that remote participants could barely hear what people in the room were saying. People attending remotely were not consistently required to have their cameras on, and clients were allowed to use phones and laptops during group with little apparent restriction. One participant repeatedly appeared to be ordering DoorDash during Zoom sessions. That level of disengagement seriously undermined the therapeutic environment. My individual therapy experience was also disappointing. I generally met with my assigned therapist for only about 15–20 minutes each week. Despite the limited contact, my therapist repeatedly forgot important details about my history and at times seemed to confuse my circumstances with those of other clients. That made the treatment feel impersonal and poorly coordinated. Elevate also provided lunch only on Fridays while I attended. Lunch obviously does not determine the quality of a program, but many PHP programs provide meals daily, and this contributed to the overall impression of a bare-bones program. I was also uncomfortable with how closely Elevate appeared to work with a nearby sober living home and how readily clients could be directed there. I do not know whether any financial relationship exists and I am not alleging that one does. However, treatment programs should be transparent about referral relationships, shared ownership, or any financial interests connected to sober housing. I also had concerns about the value of what was being provided through insurance. When a Zoom group has audio so poor that participants cannot hear, or when a group appears to have had little preparation, patients have every right to ask what service is actually being delivered and how it is being represented to insurers. What bothered me most was the overall pattern: inconsistent rules, staff vaping indoors, poorly prepared and repetitive groups, inadequate Zoom technology, minimal individual therapy, questionable communication about staff credentials, therapists forgetting basic patient information, and very loose standards for participation. People entering addiction treatment are often at an extremely vulnerable point in their lives. A PHP or IOP should provide structure, professionalism, accountability, and confidence that treatment is being thoughtfully delivered. My experience at Elevate did not provide that confidence, and based on my experience, I would not choose this program again.
