About Northpointe Behavioral Healthcare System

Northpointe Behavioral Health Systems is dedicated to empowering individuals and families throughout Michigan. They have a location in Iron River, Michigan, not far from the Apple Blossom Trail. They provide co-occurring disorder and substance abuse care alongside a variety of specialty programs for adults and children.

Their family services stand out to me for the amount of support they provide. It's not just counseling: Northpointe follows up with parenting support and wraparound services, too. This approach ensures that the family unit can heal together.

Support Developing Your Living Skills

Whether you choose Northpointe's outpatient option or go the residential route, it's a good opportunity to work on your social and living skills. The Community Living Supports program is wholly dedicated to teaching these skills. But what I find great about it is that it's personalized to your own goals.

That means you'll zero in on where you think you're lacking most. These areas can cover everyday tasks like doing your laundry to more long term goals like learning to identify community resources and healthy socialization. It's an excellent opportunity to focus even more on your needs in recovery.

Under the Watchful Eye of Care Management

But let's say you're unsure of what your recovery is missing. A professional care manager can help by observing your progress through treatment. They're trained to identify your strengths and weaknesses and recommend adjustments based on those factors.

Care managers look at your broader goals in treatment, not just recovery from substance abuse. This typically includes health and everyday living challenges. When you need assistance for issues outside the treatment program, they can make referrals on your behalf to get those resources.

Boosting Recovery with Vocational Support

The last program I want to draw attention to is their vocational support program. Unlike the Community Living Supports program, this one focuses on building work related skills. Developing new skills in general is a great boon to recovery, and having employment makes it likelier that you'll live and support yourself in the community.

Amenities

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Adult Program

No single adult program in Michigan is right for everyone. That’s why each program is tailored to meet the needs of the individual. Common aspects to an adult rehab program include individual counseling, group therapy, and aftercare support.

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an integrative, community-based care strategy designed to address the needs of persons with severe and/or complex mental illness or behavioral disorders. ACT is typically provided by a multidisciplinary team of medical and mental health care providers, social workers, therapists, and other specialists, including addiction recovery professionals. These services are frequently provided in the home and community to clients in crisis, those who are clinically unstable, and those who are unable or unwilling to travel to a hospital or clinic for in-person treatment.

Levels of Care

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

A dual diagnosis treatment center in Michigan allows you to get treatment for substance abuse and mental health disorders at the same time. This is critical, because untreated mental health disorders often lead to relapse and poor recovery outcomes.

Insurance

Financial Aid

If you're a Michigan resident in need of financial assistance with rehab, Financial Aid may be an option. This can help you access all levels of care, including detox, inpatient rehab, and more. Types of financial assistance options include grants, scholarships, non-profit programs, personal funding, and health insurance programs to help you manage the expense of substance abuse treatment.

Payment Plans & Financing

For those who are underinsured or uninsured, paying the total cost of a rehab program up front is not feasible. Fortunately, many alcohol and drug rehabs make financing available to potential clients through private loans, in-house payment plans, or partner lenders. You can choose a finance package that lets you start treatment immediately and pay for it later.

Medicaid Accepted

You may be eligible for Medicaid, which can help with the cost of alcohol and drug rehab in Michigan. Covering all levels of care, Medical Assistance can make detox, inpatient and outpatient rehab, and other forms of addiction affordable.

Medicare Accepted

You may be eligible for Michigan Medicare, which could cover the cost of alcohol and drug rehab in Michigan. The amount of coverage will depend on many things, including whether you are seeking inpatient or outpatient treatment for substance abuse.

TRICARE

Administered by the Department of Defense, TRICARE offers comprehensive military health insurance plans for active and retired military members and their families. Similar to PPO programs offered by private insurance companies, TRICARE covers multiple levels of care for addiction treatment, including detox, inpatient rehab, and outpatient services.

Private Insurance

If you have private insurance, you may be able to use your coverage to help cover the cost of alcohol and drug rehab in Michigan. Your rehab insurance policy may cover a poirtion of treatment or it may cover 100% of your treatment costs..Check with your insurer for more information.

Self-Pay Options

In Michigan, you have the option to pay for your drug or alcohol addiction treatment through self-pay options, also known as private pay. This allows you to manage the cost of your recovery journey. All levels of care, including detox, inpatient rehab, and more, are available to you through this option without limitations of insurers or state-run programs.

Sliding Scale Payment

If you need help with the cost of alcohol and drug rehab in Michigan but cannot pay the full amount, a sliding scale payment plan may be the solution for you. This option can provide access to all levels of care, including detox, inpatient rehab, and more. To qualify for this treatment discount, you must complete an application and provide supporting financial documentation.
