Thank you, Sean, for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you found our environment positive and supportive in helping you get stronger. 
If it was possible I would give them 0 stars. Their food was pretty good but that's the only good thing I have to say. I was sent there by the VA in Feb '25. I am rated 100% disabled and understood that all changes were to be covered by the VA. I was released to a different rehab in March. In April I began receiving notices that I was eligible for a repayment plan for the balance I owed for approx $2500. I reported this to my VA social worker and she said not pay because not liable for charges. I never received an invoice so had no idea why being billed. Same message received in May and June. Now I am receiving calls from CHI Health business office, from reps who barely speak English, and who couldn't answer my questions. I requested to speak with a supervisor who told me I owed about $5000 for "Dr's. Fees. Said they billed VA and VA denied payment because charges didn't qualify. The only services I received from any Dr. that I am aware of was occasionally a Dr would come in and ask how I was feeling then leave. And in my exit interview with the director of nursing I discovered that a CNA lied in a report saying that he got me out of bed twice for exercise when he didn't. I only got rehab a couple times a week then be immobile on weekends and other days. My condition didn't improve and I transferred to a small rehab hospital and am now almost completely recovered and will be sent home next week.I consider the month I spent at Select Speciality a complete waste of time and money.

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.
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
Treatments
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.
During drug rehab in Nebraska, you'll participate in therapies that address the many issues that contribute to addiction. Treatment includes physical, mental, emotional, and relational aspects. These methods provide the tools you need to achieve long-term recovery.
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.
Programs
Young Adult Program
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
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.
