About Staten Island University Hospital

Staten Island University Hospital aims to provide easily available treatment. They take many insurances ranging from Medicaid to Medicare as well as private plans. Financial counselors are also available to assist patients with exploring other payment options for those who may not be insured so that cost does not become a barrier to care.

With relapse prevention strategies and aftercare planning, the center places a focus on long term recovery, which is essential for life post treatment. The team at the center consists of addiction specialists, counselors with proper licenses and medical professionals who not only provide emotional but also psychological and sometimes physical support.

Staten Island University Hospital also has a large Behavioral Health Department. With their Mental Health Program, you can seek treatment for depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. A variety of health disciplines work in a team approach to develop comprehensive treatment plans including psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers and nurses.

Walked in to a slow ER with visible injuries. Was left waiting for 4 hours even though 2 separate nurses assured me they didnt forget about me. I informed 1 nurse my pain is increasing rapidly and I was given another B.S. stroke job story of telling me I'll be see soon. So I got up and left. I went to a Brooklyn ER got seen almost immediately. 2 thumbs down to how this hospital runs their E.R. Very unprofessional.

Terrible place. Torture to sick people. Unfriendly receptionist. Need lot of improvements My husband admitted recently to this hospital. Once again terrible experience. They don’t know how to handle depressed and panic patient. We felt irritation among staff. Though doc dosa, doc gallo and RN Tylor in radiology surgical were helping and understanding the situation and condition. I still say need to improve public dealing among staff. Otherwise treatment wise no complain. Dialysis side is best

I would give this minus 5 stars. Last night 11/14/25 I experienced the worst care and unprofessionalism I ever saw. I was with a relative on side 10 emergency room next to the nurses station and watched the nurse and staff disrespect an elderly patient and referring to her as crazy. The entire desk staff were laughing at the patient, looking at their cell phones and making other people like me hear them belittle and disrespect her. The entire staff had no respect and should be disciplined. Im glad my relative went home. I would never recommend anybody go to this emergency room unless they don't care about their life. This hospital has changed since I was there over 10 years ago. The elderly patient should file charges against the hospital and I would be her witness. God help anyone in this asylum.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Staten Island University Hospital works with several private insurance providers, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Introduced in 1983, motivational interviewing is a method to help clients commit to change. It's based on the philosophy that change is hard, and clients must explore their own options and come to their own conclusions rather than receive warnings or advice from the therapist.

Lexei Validum the PCT in the emergency room assaulted me by grabbing my arm and twisting it because I tried to record her badge after she was being excessively rough and verbally abusive to my cousin. She took my phone and tried to delete the recording then made the guards delete it off my phone.
