About Rehabcompanion.com

RehabCompanion.com is meant to be a central repository of information about addiction and alcoholism. It is a community based public benefit website – a resource that is free to the public, where qualified and experienced experts in drug addiction, alcoholism, dual diagnosis, and other addictive disorders – most often individuals who are themselves in recovery – can share their knowledge, experience, strength and hope in how to overcome these complex diseases. The Information provided in this service is intended to encourage, not replace, direct patient-health professional relationships.

Welcome to our public benefit addiction and mental health resource website. We are a team of passionate individuals who are dedicated to improving the lives of those who struggle with addiction and mental health issues. Our website was created with the goal of providing a safe, accessible space for people to find the resources they need to overcome these challenges and live healthy, fulfilling lives.

The scope of addiction and mental health issues in the United States today is staggering. According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), approximately 20 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in 2019. Additionally, mental illness affects approximately one in five adults in the United States, and suicide is one of the leading causes of death among young adults.

These statistics illustrate the urgent need for accessible, effective resources to support those who are struggling with addiction and mental health issues. Unfortunately, many people face barriers to receiving the help they need, including lack of access to resources, financial constraints, and stigma surrounding these issues.

Our website aims to help bridge this gap by providing a comprehensive array of resources and tools for individuals, families, and communities impacted by addiction and mental health challenges. We believe that everyone deserves access to high-quality, evidence-based information and support, regardless of their background or circumstances.

Our team consists of professionals with decades of experience in the fields of addiction and mental health, as well as individuals who have personal experience with these issues. We understand the complex nature of addiction and mental health challenges and are committed to providing compassionate, non-judgmental support to all those who seek our help.

Our website offers a variety of resources, including articles, videos, and podcasts, that cover a wide range of topics related to addiction and mental health. We provide information on treatment options, support groups, and other resources that can help individuals and families navigate the challenges of addiction and mental health.

One of our core beliefs is that education is key to breaking down the stigma surrounding addiction and mental health challenges. We strive to provide clear, accurate information about these issues to help individuals and families better understand the nature of these challenges and how to seek effective support.

Another key aspect of our mission is to connect individuals and families with the resources they need to overcome addiction and mental health issues. We provide information on evidence-based treatments, support groups, and other resources that can help individuals on their path to recovery.

At the heart of our website is a commitment to providing compassionate, non-judgmental support to all those who seek our help. We believe that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, and we strive to create a safe, welcoming space for all individuals who seek our services.

We understand that addiction and mental health issues can be overwhelming and challenging to navigate. Our goal is to provide tools and resources that empower individuals and families to take charge of their recovery and achieve lasting wellness. We believe that with the right support, anyone can overcome these challenges and live a fulfilling, meaningful life.

Thank you for visiting our website, and we hope that you find the resources and support you need to thrive.

WHERE TO START

We all have different experiences, beliefs, and lifestyles which make us unique. In the same way, the effects of addiction vary from person to person based on the individual. John Bradshaw describes addiction as a “Pathological relationship with any mood-altering experience with life-damaging consequences”. Not everyone who does drugs, drinks alcohol, or gambles at a casino is an addict, but the primary sign of addiction – namely unmanageability in life – is impossible to ignore. To determine whether you or a loved one is actually in need of addiction treatment, we offer a free and completely confidential in-depth addiction assessment. By answering the questions on the assessment, we will be able to review the situation and one of our trained addiction professionals will contact you directly to further discuss the issues you are experiencing and possible solutions for recovery.

Drug addiction and alcoholism are serious and potentially fatal conditions that require immediate, professional help. There are well over 13,000 drug and alcohol addiction treatment centers in the United States and thousands more abroad designed to treat every kind of addiction and co-occurring mental health disorder. When drug addicts and alcoholics become willing to make a change, quickly determining the best treatment program for their needs can mean the difference between life and death. For immediate assistance, call our 24/7 addiction helpline at 1 866-985-0181 (HOPE) or explore our publicly rated and reviewed treatment center directory, we’re here to help!

How Our Helpline Works

When you call the toll-free helpline listed on our pages that contain the “Who Answers” tab, you will reach RehabCompanion.com employees who work solely for Morpheus Consulting Inc. and/or its affiliates and contractors,  and will discuss with you the treatment options available from the treatment providers listed in our treatment center directory. If Rehabcompanion.com cannot recommend a treatment option that meets your needs, we may suggest that you search for other options. Other third-party treatment options are available to you both on Rehabcompanion.com through our directory listings and through advertisements that third-party treatment providers place on our site. Our goal is to provide you with a broad, nationwide set of treatment options in one place, to help make your search for the best treatment center for your specific needs as convenient as possible. If you wish to connect with a specific rehab center, if we can not put you in direct contact with them, you can browse top-rated listings on our site, visit our homepage and browse by state, or visit SAMHSA.gov.

Our helpline is offered at no cost to you and with no obligation to enter into treatment. Neither Rehabcompanion.com nor AAC receives any commission or other fee that is dependent upon which treatment provider a visitor may ultimately choose.

How Chat Works

When you use our free chat feature, you will reach an automated assistant representing Rehabcompanion who will help you navigate your treatment options privately and discreetly. The automated assistant will ask you questions and provide you with basic information to help you start your journey to recovery. If you would like to speak with a Rehabcompanion representative directly, a phone number is available in the chat window. When you call this phone number, you will reach Rehabcompanion.com employees who work solely for Morpheus Consulting Inc. and will discuss with you the treatment options available from the RehabCompanion.com database of treatment providers.

Our chat service is offered at no cost to you and with no obligation to enter into treatment, as is the case with our live treatment referral coordinators. Neither Rehabcompanion.com nor Morpheus Consulting Inc. receives any commission or other fee that is dependent upon which treatment provider a visitor may ultimately choose.

All chat users are invited to opt-in to receive additional communications from RehabCompanion. Opting in to these communications is entirely voluntary and you may opt-out from receiving messages from RehabCompanion at any time. Chat users can select their preferred method of contact. Standard messaging and data rates may apply for those who opt-in for SMS.

How Self-Service Verification of Benefits Works

By entering your insurance information into our free insurance verification check form, RehabCompanion will attempt to verify your health insurance benefits and/or necessary authorizations on your behalf to determine if your insurance benefits may be accepted by a facility with whom RehabCompanion refers. Please note, RehabCompanion only provides at best a quote of benefits and/or authorizations. We cannot guarantee payment by your insurance carrier or verification of eligibility for your insurance benefits as conveyed by your health insurance provider will be accurate and complete, and we cannot verify or guarantee coverage and/or eligibility for treatment services rendered at treatment centers that we do not own or operate. Payment of benefits is subject to all terms, conditions, limitations, and exclusions of the member’s contract at the time of service.

Your health insurance company will only pay for benefits/services that it determines to be “reasonable and necessary” at the time of care. RehabCompanion will make every effort to work with your provider of choice to have all services preauthorized by your health insurance company. If your health insurance company determines that a particular service is not reasonable and necessary, or that a particular service is not covered under your insurance plan, your insurer may deny payment for that service and its cost will become solely your responsibility. For more information about the terms and conditions of your individual insurance plan, please contact your health insurance provider.

Our Commitment to Ethics

We commit to the highest ethical standards, in the interest of being as open, honest, helpful, and transparent as possible to those seeking treatment for substance abuse and dual diagnosis. We strive to make our site as easy to use and straightforward as possible: we clearly distinguish ads from curated content and disclose RehabCompanion’s relationship with this website and its 24/7 telephone helpline. We take unmatched steps to ensure our advertisers are licensed and vetted providers, similar to the criteria used by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) provider directory at SAMHSA.gov.

Additionally, we commit ourselves to fairness and editorial independence. Our content is unbiased with respect to objective facility data, and we invite third parties to submit reviews and ratings of their treatment experiences. Rehabcompanion.com does not take a stance on treatment methodologies, programs, or paths to recovery, and rather publishes content impartially to allow our site visitors to make informed decisions about their treatment.

We believe everyone has a right to treatment, but we believe everyone who seeks treatment should find it in an honest and safe way. That’s why we don’t sell or broker admissions or engage in “consultant contracts.” If you encounter any marketing practices based on calls made to centers or helplines listed on this site that you feel are deceptive, unethical, or misleading, contact us and we will do our best to correct the situation and help you find a trustworthy provider. If a visitor connects with one of our site sponsors and it is not a match, we ask that the sponsor recommend treatment alternatives that may better address the person’s needs at no cost.

Selecting a Treatment Provider

Finding an appropriate treatment provider can feel like a daunting task for you and your loved ones. However, resources like Rehabcompanion.com and facility websites can help you narrow down your search to help you find the best and most appropriate treatment options for your needs. When choosing a treatment provider, it is essential to know what to look for and what questions to ask. Rehabcompanion.com has compiled a comprehensive list of criteria to consider as you begin your search.

  • Accreditation and Licensure: Is the facility accredited by the Joint Commission or CARF? Does it have the appropriate licensure from the state to deliver all of the levels of care they offer? Has the facility had any violations against its accreditation or licensure? This information is all publicly available and is listed on many Rehabcompanion.com profile pages.
  • Clinical and Medical Fit: Does the treatment center offer in-depth information about their clinical program online? When you call, does their admissions team ask for detailed information on your medical history? What treatment methodologies does the facility utilize, and are they rooted in scientific, evidence-based practices? Evidence-based practices are treatment methods that been shown in clinical trials to produce better outcomes. Will the facility provide the names and credentials of its medical professionals? Does the facility have published outcomes data that tracks patients’ success rates of staying clean? Clinical fit is key to successful outcomes from treatment.
  • Payment Options: Is treatment “in-network” by your insurance provider?  If not, ask about expenses that may be incurred, including testing, travel, and aftercare.
  • The More Information, The Better: Staff bios that list experience and qualifications, videos and photos, ratings and reviews, and detailed information on assessment, treatment, and long-term support can be helpful in narrowing down your options.
  • Red Flags: Is the treatment program promising a “cure” or boasting a success rate? Is the admissions center only asking about your insurance or ability to pay? Are you being offered free travel, help with securing insurance, cash payments, or gifts for selecting treatment? These are all possible indicators of unethical or illegal behaviors that can potentially be harmful to you or your loved one.
