What To Expect During Rehab

Here at Legacy Healing Centers in South Florida we are frequently asked about what to expect during rehab and are always prepared to answer. We pride ourselves on making sure that those who are seeking help feel comfortable and well informed about the programs offered. When an individual makes the courageous decision to enter a rehabilitation program at Legacy Healing Center, they will be given a case manager who will help walk them through all parts of the admissions process, making it an easy process.

The case manager will gather all information needed to determine treatment. They will help with organizing various evaluations such as physical and psychological to understand the level of care needed and begin to work on an individualized treatment plan. Case managers will work with the individual and the family to make sure that all factors are taken into consideration and that treatment will lead to a successful recovery.

Those entering a treatment facility are evaluated on many factors that look at both mental and physical health, to understand the individual fully. Things we take into consideration at Legacy Healing center include:

– Length of addiction

– Severity of addiction

– Family dynamics

– Outside therapists

– Co-occurring disorders ( such as depression, anxiety, bi-polar)

– Non-compliance of treatment

– Any past relapses

When it comes to what to expect during rehab, as stated above, each individual who enters a Legacy Healing Center program at one of our South Florida locations will be assessed and then receive a personalized treatment plan and protocol that will specifically target the individual’s specific needs. At Legacy, we believe that a holistic approach to healing works best because it puts the focus on healing the individual as a whole, looking at their body, mind, emotions, and spirit.

How Much Does Rehab Cost?

The cost of a substance abuse treatment program at Legacy Healing Center can vary greatly depending on the program, treatment, facility, and amenities for the patients. It is common for medical insurance to cover a 30-day stay at a treatment center, while other medical insurances may cover longer lengths of stay. Friendly staff on the Legacy Healing Center admissions team, as well as the case manager, will help individuals and families determine the overall cost, what insurance will cover, and set up payment plans to cover any difference between insurance and out of pocket.

It is possible to also be eligible for financial help through Medicare, Medicaid, and Tricare for veterans. If you do not have health insurance, call to speak with one of Legacy’s financial counselors to speak about financing options.

If you do have medical insurance and would like to know what percentage would be covered for an individual’s stay in a treatment program, call today to find out more information. Legacy’s helpline is 100% confidential and can be reached at 888.534.2295.

At the end of the day, a treatment program will cost a lot less than supporting a substance abuse addiction and can take the risk of overdose or other complications out of the picture. Legacy Healing Center is here to help every step of the way to make sure that cost, insurance coverage, and everything else is understood before making the decision to enter a program.

Does insurance Cover Residential Rehab?

Insurance commonly covers a 30- day stay in a rehabilitation program, but may have limits on the types of services that are covered. If you have medical insurance, you can always call your health insurance provider to find out exactly what you are covered for. Legacy Healing Center can also help you with this step, and even explain more about health insurance stipulations, what programs would be covered at their facilities, and how to move forward with beginning treatment. 

What Is The Difference Between Inpatient and Outpatient?

Both inpatient and outpatient programs focus on the rehabilitation of individuals who enter our programs, while there are differences between the two types of treatment. Outpatient treatment programs allow for flexibility and are geared more towards individuals who are struggling with mild addictions that have certain responsibilities such as family, work, and other things that they may be able to manage while also receiving treatment. An outpatient treatment program at Legacy Healing Center in South Florida requires patients to attend rehab a few times a week for treatment, while living at home, and maintain a semi-normal daily life.

On the other hand, residential (inpatient) treatment programs require individuals to live at the facility for an extended amount of time to receive treatment. This type of treatment program is more intense, structured, and geared towards individuals with more severe, long-term addiction. One of the benefits of inpatient treatment is that patients can be monitored if needed to ensure their health all while being given the opportunity to focus on recovery without outside distractions.

Inpatient treatment programs at Legacy Healing Centers in South Florida give patients the time needed to make important changes in their behaviors and thought patterns. On top of being given time to work on one’s self, individuals become a part of a community at their treatment center where support and encouragement are fostered between the staff and the patients.

When one exits a treatment program, help doesn’t stop there. No matter the type of treatment program an individual enters at Legacy Healing Center, patients are still able to receive care when needed through the form of support groups, aftercare programs, and even outpatient treatments.
