At Scottsdale Comprehensive Treatment Center (CTC), we offer personalized care for adults age 18 and older who are suffering from opioid addictions. Our CTC provides medication-assisted treatment (MAT) — an evidence-based approach to treating opioid addiction that is recommended by respected organizations such as the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). Many people are familiar with the basic services of a methadone clinic but may be less aware of the comprehensive care a MAT program can provide. Our MAT program offers methadone, a prescription medication that can help relieve the painful withdrawal symptoms that people may experience when they stop using opioids. We also include individual counseling as a key part of the treatment process. By receiving medication and therapy in MAT, you can improve functioning, focus on the recovery process, and enhance your ability to remain in treatment, among other benefits. Additionally, because we offer MAT as an outpatient service, you can participate in treatment while continuing to engage in daily activities and meet regular commitments.

Oasis Behavioral Health provides two separate intensive outpatient programs (IOPs): an adolescent IOP for young people ages 11-17 and an IOP for adults age 18 and older. Both tracks are available for people who are suffering from mental health concerns and addictions. Intensive outpatient programming can be an ideal option for patients who do not require round-the-clock monitoring or live-in care. Those who participate in our IOPs have the flexibility to continue fulfilling their responsibilities outside of treatment, whether at school, at work, or in their communities. Adolescents and adults may enter intensive outpatient treatment directly without completing a higher level of care. Patients in our IOPs attend treatment three days a week for an average of eight weeks. During this time, they may engage in several evidence-based modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, 12-Step programming, and group therapy. We also offer an education-focused support group for families and parents that takes place twice a month.

Medicaid Treatment Centers

Does insurance cover therapy, prescriptions and other behavioral health services?

In general, yes. Laws in the U.S. require insurers to cover essential behavioral health care at the same level as other health care services. Most health plans require a medical diagnosis and treatments that are evidence based and medically essential. This means that life coaching and alternative therapies are not covered, nor is therapy without a diagnosis. Call the number on the back or your insurance card or visit your insurance company's website to review your Summary of Benefits. If you have insurance through your employer, your Human Resources department may also be able to answer questions.

How much does therapy cost with insurance?

The cost of therapy depends on your region, how much training and experience your therapist has, and the type of treatment. The rate for talk therapy generally falls between $100 and $250. For a client seeing an in-network provider, the cost of therapy is often similar to the cost of other health care services. Clients pay co-pays and may need to satisfy a plan’s deductible before benefits kick in.

What is the difference between In-Network and Out-of-Network insurance coverage?

An in-network provider has contracted with an insurer to get paid directly for services, and to accept the insurer’s rate of compensation. Clients are responsible for deductibles and copays. If a therapist is out of network, that means that the client pays the therapist directly for services at the therapist’s regular fee. Out-of-Network providers often give clients a receipt so that they can file for partial reimbursement with their insurance company.

Is it difficult to find an In-Network therapist?

It is not unusual for therapists to limit the number of insurance patients in their practice, so it’s important to check in-network availability when you schedule your first appointment. In regions and times where therapy is in high demand it may take longer to get scheduled with an in-network therapist.

What is the difference between HMO and PPO insurance plans?

HMO health plans only cover in-network services, there is no reimbursement for out-of-network providers. PPO plans often cover both in- and out-of-network services, though the client may pay more for out-of-network services.

What is a Superbill?

A superbill is a receipt for therapy services. It provides all the information required by insurance companies to reimburse you for out-of-network services, including the diagnostic codes for your care, the amount paid, and the dates and duration of care.

Does insurance cover Online therapy?

Many therapists who shifted their practice to online therapy during the pandemic have kept that arrangement. And most insurers continue to cover telehealth services, with a few exceptions. Preventive care (such as an annual depression screening) is often required to be in-person to be covered, and some states require prescribers of controlled substances to see those patients in person.

Does insurance cover Group therapy?

Many insurance plans provide coverage for group therapy provided there is a medical diagnosis for group members, but there are some noteworthy exceptions. For example, Medicare does not always cover group therapy. Group therapy tends to cost less than individual therapy.

Does insurance cover Couples therapy?

Most insurance companies do not cover the cost of couples therapy because there is no medical diagnosis or medically necessary treatment. However, a few plans will offer a limited benefit, so it is still worth checking with your insurance company. Sometimes therapy is covered for a couple when one person has a diagnosis and another family member joins them for joint therapy, but it is considered therapy for the medical condition that includes a family member as a listener or helper, not couples counseling. Without insurance, most clients pay between $100-300 per 60-90 min session for couples therapy. Often clients can find classes or workshops that make it more affordable to work on their relationship. And some employers offer benefit plans that help defray the cost of couples therapy.
