Frequently Asked Questions
Does Addiction Recovery accept insurance for drug and alcohol treatment?
Yes. We are in-network for many major insurance companies. Additionally, the UAB Addiction Recovery Program is “insurance friendly,” meaning that we both accept insurance and work hard with insurance companies on behalf of our clients in treatment to secure the best payment solutions for them.
How much does drug and alcohol treatment cost?
It depends on your health insurance coverage, including copays and deductibles set by your insurance company. Your policy may cover up to 100% of the costs.
What kind of treatment programs do you offer?
The UAB Addiction Recovery Program offers a wide range of alcohol and drug treatment programs and services for health care workers and other professionals. Our mental health professionals are skilled at helping patients with co-occurring disorders (issues in addition to addiction, such as depression, anxiety, and eating disorders), which sets our Addiction Recovery Program apart from other alcohol and drug treatment centers. Family members play an important role in the addiction recovery process and are encouraged to attend our Family Program and Parent Program.
Do you treat conditions other than drug and alcohol addiction?
Many people who come to the UAB Addiction Recovery Program seeking treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction also may struggle with mental health issues such as depression, eating disorders, grief, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and sexual compulsivity. This combination of addiction along with a mental health issue is called “co-occurring disorders” and is quite common. Our medical staff and counselors are skilled in addressing these complex issues that are often seen with drug or alcohol addiction.
