Inpatient vs. Outpatient Rehab
1: What is the difference between inpatient and outpatient rehab?
Inpatient rehab provides 24/7 residential care, including medical supervision, therapy, and holistic support. You live at the facility for the duration of treatment, which is ideal for moderate to severe addiction. Outpatient rehab allows clients to live at home while attending structured therapy sessions, making it a flexible option for those with milder addiction or responsibilities like work and school.
​
2: How long does inpatient drug rehab usually last?
Inpatient drug rehab typically lasts 30–90 days, depending on the severity of the addiction, medical needs, and individualized treatment plans. Some clients may require longer stays for complex cases or dual diagnosis treatment.
​
3: Who is a good candidate for outpatient treatment?
Outpatient treatment is suitable for individuals with mild to moderate addiction, a stable home environment, and the ability to attend scheduled therapy sessions consistently. It is also ideal for those who have completed inpatient treatment and need continued support.
​
4: Can I work or go to school during outpatient rehab?
Yes. Outpatient programs are designed to accommodate daily responsibilities while providing comprehensive care, including therapy sessions, relapse prevention, and support groups. Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) may require 3–5 sessions per week.
Insurance & Financial Questions
5: Does insurance cover inpatient rehab in California?
Many major insurance providers cover inpatient rehab. Coverage varies by plan and facility, so verification is required. Our admissions team will help you understand your benefits, including in-network and out-of-network options.
​
Q6: How do I verify my insurance benefits for addiction treatment?
: Contact our admissions team with your insurance information. We will verify coverage, explain benefits, and ensure you understand your financial responsibilities before starting treatment.
​
7: What happens if my insurance doesn’t cover rehab?
: If your insurance does not fully cover treatment, we offer sliding scale fees, flexible payment plans, and third-party financing. Our goal is to make rehab accessible to everyone, regardless of insurance status.
​
8: Why do some rehabs say “insurance accepted” but not list carriers?
“Insurance accepted” means the facility can work with multiple providers, but coverage varies depending on your plan and network. Always verify your benefits with the admissions team before enrolling.
​
Treatment Types
9: What is medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and how does it work?
MAT combines FDA-approved medications with counseling and therapy to treat addiction. Medications help manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms while therapy addresses behavioral and emotional components of addiction.
​
10: Why is dual diagnosis treatment important for recovery?
: Dual diagnosis treatment addresses co-occurring mental health disorders alongside addiction. Treating both conditions simultaneously improves recovery outcomes and reduces the risk of relapse.
​
11: How does music therapy support addiction recovery?
Music therapy provides emotional expression, reduces stress, and enhances engagement in therapy. It supports recovery by promoting self-awareness, coping skills, and a sense of community in group sessions.
​
12: What are evidence-based treatments for addiction?
Evidence-based treatments include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, contingency management, and family therapy. These therapies have been scientifically proven to improve recovery outcomes.
Family & Support
13: How can families support loved ones in recovery?
Families can support recovery by encouraging treatment, attending family therapy, maintaining open communication, and avoiding enabling behaviors. Education and support groups also help families understand addiction and its impact.
​
14: Why is family counseling critical during rehab?
Family counseling addresses relational issues, teaches healthy communication, and fosters a supportive home environment. Involving family members can significantly improve treatment success.
​
15: What are the emotional costs of addiction for family members?
Addiction can cause stress, anxiety, depression, and strained relationships for loved ones. Family counseling and support groups help mitigate these effects while supporting the client’s recovery journey.
