Treatment at The Recovery Village at Baptist Health

At The Recovery Village at Baptist Health, patients embark on a treatment program tailored to their specific needs. As they make progress through their recovery journey, they have the opportunity to transition to lower care levels. Treatment typically starts with a medical detox, followed by inpatient treatment at our Palm Beach facility or intensive outpatient care at our Miami office.

Medical Detox

A medically supervised detox process can help you overcome the physical symptoms of drug withdrawal. Throughout this difficult first step, our priority is your safety and comfort. Our medical staff will maintain your physical safety during detox and care for you around the clock to ensure a healthy detox process. Detoxification alone can’t change the course of an addiction, so a rehab program usually follows it.

Inpatient Rehab

After medical detox, inpatient rehab is often the vital next step on the road to healing. Inpatient rehab, sometimes referred to as residential rehab, is an intensive program in which clients spend work with medical and clinical professionals to learn how to live life without substances. With a variety of clinical and recreational therapy options and onsite amenities, inpatient care can be a transformative piece of a full continuum of care.

Outpatient Rehab

Outpatient care services provide non-residents the services and treatment they need to thrive outside of our facilities and throughout their personal recovery journey. At The Recovery Village Cherry Hill, clients work with counselors to create relapse prevention strategies and find support. This can take place in personal sessions or via telemedicine — a cutting-edge method of providing clients clinical health care at a distance.

How Long You’ll Stay

The length of your stay can vary based on your program, customized treatment plan, recovery progress, and insurance coverage. In general, clients at our Palm Beach facility may expect:

Medical detox for 7–11 days
Inpatient care, including medical detox for 14–25 days
Total stay including PHP and IOP care is 35–45 days

Patients may transition to outpatient care at our Miami location following an IOP stay at Palm Beach. Outpatient care can last as long as the patient likes, but most clients find value in regular appointments for 1–3+ months.

Clients with milder addictions may start in intensive outpatient care at our Miami location. With fewer hours per week than inpatient care, IOP programming at Miami may take longer, or about 2–3 months.

Will I be forced to complete treatment?

We always emphasize the importance of completing the full treatment plan to minimize the risk of relapse and overdose. Nonetheless, we respect each patient’s autonomy. Patients have the right to leave rehab at any time, even if it goes against medical advice, provided that they do not pose a threat to themselves or others.

Insurance and Your Obligation During Treatment

Most health insurance plans require you to pay out-of-pocket costs to access your healthcare benefits (collectively known as the “Patient Responsibility”).
Your individual Patient Responsibility will differ.

An intake coordinator will discuss your Patient Responsibility with you when you’re admitted or as soon as you are medically stable. They will explain the deductible due during admission and that the co-insurance amount and out-of-pocket cost will be billed and paid for once services are complete. Onsite financial counselors will review your financial responsibility again during treatment with case managers who can help you navigate FMLA and short-term disability.

You are responsible for checking with your insurance provider before admittance at The Recovery Village at Baptist Health to ensure you understand your benefits plan. Please note your insurance policy may not be a “participating provider” with The Recovery Village at Baptist Health. You are responsible for all non-covered and out-of-pocket costs related to your treatment stay.
