About Geisinger Community Medical Center

Geisinger Community Medical Center is a hospital based behavioral health and addiction recovery provider in Scranton, Pennsylvania operating within the larger Geisinger health system.

The facility offers inpatient care with clinical services such as family therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, with particular experience treating co-occurring substance use and mental health conditions.

As part of an integrated medical campus, Geisinger provides addiction related support alongside the medical and psychiatric resources that many patients need to recover safely.

Inpatient Care for Co-Occurring Disorders

Geisinger’s core strength is treating co-occurring disorders, addressing substance use alongside conditions like depression and anxiety, PTSD and bipolar disorder.

The hospital based setting provides 24 hour inpatient behavioral health care backed by a full medical center, an advantage for patients who need clinical support during recovery.

Treatment centers on evidence based approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma informed care, delivered through individual, couples and family sessions.

This combination helps patients address the root causes connecting their mental health and substance use, not just the symptoms.

Reviewers have praised the facility’s “excellent care by wonderful medical staff” and staff who are “friendly and helpful.”

Expressive and Whole Person Therapies

Beyond talk based care, Geisinger incorporates expressive therapies such as art therapy, music therapy and dance therapy into its behavioral health offerings.

These creative approaches give patients additional outlets for processing emotions and building healthy coping skills during treatment.

I just had a hip replacement with Dr. Sutton. It was such a pleasure interacting with Dr. Sutton (who did a fabulous job) along with the Geisinger staff. Everyone was so professional and warm. Mark M. was incredibly kind to my family. Kyle in recovery is an excellent nurse. Also Patrick in billing is a gentlemen to deal with. Geisinger is a class act.

We have had excellent care by wonderful medical staff. Not once, but many times. Take time to read the complaints and decide if they are all valid or written in moments of frustration.

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.

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

Treatments

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.
