Alpine Recovery Lodge works with many major insurance providers. Our admissions team can privately verify your benefits, explain your estimated coverage, and help you understand your options before you commit.
Base Program Rates
Alpine Recovery Lodge’s current standard 30-day base rates are $21,000 for Residential Treatment, $14,000 for PHP, and $4,500 for IOP before insurance benefits are applied.
| Program | Base Cost | Billing Note |
|---|---|---|
| Residential Treatment | $21,000 / 30 days | Base self-pay program rate before insurance adjustments, authorizations, or plan-specific cost sharing. |
| Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) | $14,000 / 30 days | Base self-pay rate before insurance benefits or patient responsibility are calculated. |
| Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) | $4,500 / 30 days | Base self-pay rate before insurance review and any plan limits are applied. |
These are base rates, not a promise of what every family will pay. Final cost may be lower if insurance contributes, but coverage depends on the exact plan.
What Changes Cost
Final cost depends on more than the program name. Insurance plans apply different rules to different people.
Most families do not pay the full base rate when insurance contributes, but the final amount varies case by case.
Some families may owe much less than the base rate. Others may still have meaningful out-of-pocket costs because of deductibles, coinsurance, non-covered services, benefit limits, or out-of-network issues.
In-Network Insurance Pages
Alpine Recovery Lodge is in network with many plans, but the most important detail is your exact policy. Employer groups, plan versions, state rules, network pathways, deductibles, and authorization requirements can all change coverage.
If your insurance is not listed, please still reach out. Alpine Recovery Lodge works with many more plans than can be fully listed here. Our admissions team can privately verify your benefits and explain whether Alpine may be in network with your specific policy.
Many plans help reduce the cost of treatment when care is medically necessary, but insurance does not work the same way for every family.
Insurance may help cover part of treatment for detox, residential treatment, PHP, IOP, mental health treatment, and dual diagnosis treatment.
Coverage Limits
Coverage may be limited by medical-necessity review, policy exclusions, deductibles, day limits, or continued-stay review. A private verification can help estimate benefits before treatment starts.
For general information about mental health and substance use disorder benefit rights, you can review SAMHSA’s parity resource and the U.S. Department of Labor’s MHPAEA information.
What Happens First
Insurance verification is a confidential review of your benefits so you can get a clearer picture of possible coverage and estimated cost before treatment begins.
What Happens After You Reach Out
After you reach out, Alpine’s admissions team will ask a few practical questions, verify your insurance when possible, and help you understand whether treatment at Alpine appears realistic clinically and financially.
If Alpine is not the right fit, our team can still help you understand safer next steps. Reaching out does not obligate you to admit, and insurance verification does not guarantee coverage or approval.
Questions to Ask
Families usually want straight answers. These are some of the most important questions to ask before choosing a rehab program.
| Question | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| What is the full base rate before insurance? | It gives families a transparent starting point before plan benefits are applied. |
| What is my deductible? | A deductible can strongly affect early out-of-pocket cost. |
| What is my coinsurance or copay? | Some plans still require cost-sharing after coverage begins. |
| Is Alpine in network for my exact plan? | Network status may change estimated cost and authorization steps. |
| Do I need prior authorization? | Some levels of care require review before treatment begins. |
| What level of care does my plan cover? | Detox, residential treatment, PHP, and IOP may be reviewed differently. |
| Will mental health and dual diagnosis treatment be included? | Many people need support for both substance use and mental health symptoms. |
| What happens if a longer stay is recommended? | Continued care may require ongoing review or a step-down plan. |
| What may not be covered? | It helps families avoid surprises around exclusions or non-covered services. |
If you do not have insurance, Alpine Recovery Lodge also offers direct-pay treatment options.
In that case, the base rates are the clearest starting point. If more care is needed, if a stay changes, or if additional planning is involved, your total cost may change.
Why This Works
Cost confusion can keep families stuck. Alpine’s process helps organize the decision: understand base pricing, verify benefits, review likely cost factors, clarify level of care, and decide what comes next.
Waiting often makes the decision feel heavier. A private insurance verification does not force treatment. It simply gives you better information about substance abuse treatment, mental health treatment, and available next steps.
Families often tell us they want a calm process, clearer answers, and help understanding what to do next.

FAQ
No. Many plans help reduce the cost, but coverage varies a lot. Some families owe much less after insurance, while others may still owe a meaningful amount because of deductibles, coinsurance, or benefit limits.
No. The listed numbers are base program rates before insurance. Your final amount may be lower or, depending on the situation, different from the base estimate if coverage, length of stay, or services change.
In many cases, yes. We work to review benefits and explain estimated patient responsibility before arrival whenever possible.
A high deductible can increase what you owe before insurance begins paying at a higher level. That is one of the biggest reasons family costs can vary.
Out-of-network situations can still have benefits in some cases, but they often work differently and may leave the family with a higher share of cost.
Total cost can change if treatment continues beyond the standard rate period. Insurance review, clinical need, and the recommended next level of care all matter.
