I was referred to Dr. David J. Berler , MD by my gastroenterologist after many years of treatment for gastrointestinal issues. A HIDA scan 4 years prior showed a borderline function of my gallbladder but no stones. A second HIDA scan this October showed my gallbladder was barely functioning although no stones were visible. I met with Dr. Berler and his excellent team to set up an appointment for removal of my gallbladder with the hope that it would relieve some of my symptoms. Dr. Berler was very clear that removal of my gallbladder was not a guarantee that all my symptoms would go away because of my unusual symptoms , but we could eliminate that issue. I felt very comfortable making that decision because every single issue was addressed and I felt very confident with his opinion. Dr. Berler has a compassionate and reassuring manner, he listens and makes sure he understands what the patient is saying. His staff is beyond helpful as well and made sure I felt comfortable and understood everything that was discussed. About two weeks ago my surgery was completed and I saw him again yesterday for a follow up . Once again he reassured me that my healing was progressing as expected and I updated him on my wellbeing and positive changes I’ve noticed. The day of surgery was made less stressful because the entire staff was beyond professional, they were supportive and kind and we even laughed. The nurse who stayed with me till I was discharged ( wish I could remember her name) was excellent and we even hugged as I left the room. Anesthesia interferes with memory and details , but what remains is a feeling of having been taken care of with respect and kindness. My husband who is a retired physician and was by my side the entire time, was very impressed with the care I received . We are still trying to understand how the hospital has trained EVERY employee to be so informed and incredibly kind to the patients who come in stressed. At my follow up yesterday we were even escorted by a woman who saw we were trying to understand the instructions to the doctor’s office. From the reception area of the hospital to his office every single person is excellent at their jobs. Whatever training they are receiving is beyond professional and we highly recommend the hospital for the care and expertise we received. Dr. David Berler will be our family’s surgeon if we ever need one and St. Barnabas our preferred hospital.

I had great nursing care but there was a problem with my procedure resulting in my outpatient surgery becoming an inpatient CCU admission. Without my Epic portal the physician mentioned device malfunction. Now I have to pay an admission copay instead of just my outpatient copay. Any medical device or medal practice lawyers there??

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.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

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.

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.

Clients often enter inpatient rehab following detox, but they may also enroll during early recovery or at an increased risk of relapse. Inpatient rehabs provide housing, meals, and intensive clinical supervision, allowing clients to focus exclusively on their recovery in a highly structured and supportive environment. Clients typically receive multiple individual, group, and/or family therapy sessions weekly. Many programs also offer extensive addiction education and recovery-focused life skills training. Integrative inpatient rehabs provide holistic therapies as well.

Clients in a rehab aftercare program have typically completed detox and intensive inpatient and are medically stable. These programs are designed to address addiction recovery as a life-long process. Outpatient counseling and recovery education are typically categorized as drug rehab aftercare, but many clients continue to receive support after being discharged from formal outpatient treatment. Case managers and recovery teams facilitate clients' access to peer coaching, career counseling, 12 step program induction, and related services.

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

24-hour clinical care in New Jersey provides a setting where you can withdraw from alcohol or drugs under close monitoring of experienced medical staff. These trained professionals can intervene at any time if needed. They can prescribe medications to reduce cravings and physical discomfort. Mental health professionals are also available to address any emotional and psychological challenges you experience as you begin your recovery journey.

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.

Clinical Services

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.

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.

Building life skills allows you to demolish negative patterns of behavior and build new, healthy patterns. By building new thought processes, coping strategies, and behaviors, you establish a solid foundation for recovery.
