Does Columbia Treatment Center take insurance?

Columbia Treatment Center does not take medical insurance, does not have contracts with managed care companies , and is, therefore, considered an out-of-network provider . We have operated as a ‘self-pay’ organization for over 20 years, and strongly feel that this decision continues to be in the best interests of our clients.

Can a managed care provider provide outpatient treatment for substance abuse?

Burdensome pre-authorization requirements imposed by managed care companies make it virtually impossible for outpatient substance abuse programs to get author ization to provide care unless a client has been diagnosed as having both a substance related disorder and a mental health condition. Though assigning dual diagnoses may assist in obtaining initial coverage, it is a practice under intense scrutiny. In order to substantiate that treatment is medically necessary, we often must diagnose you with a medical condition such as alcoholism or drug abuse, when in fact, you may not be either.

What age do we care for adults?
