About Three Rivers Behavioral Health
Medicaid is accepted at Three Rivers Behavioral Health, an addiction treatment center in West Columbia, South Carolina. Youth from 11 to 17 and adults 18 and up can be admitted.
Does Three Rivers take Medicare?
Three Rivers also takes Medicare and TRICARE, which is military health coverage.
You can plan the cost around those payers, and acceptance doesn't mean a plan will pay the stay. I want to note that direct payment is accepted if you have no insurance or you'd rather not bill a plan.
Who does Three Rivers treat?
Three Rivers has inpatient and outpatient programs for adolescents.
The senior inpatient program serves older adults who need acute mental health care and it runs around the clock.
A trauma recovery track serves people in the military, veterans and first responders who are 18 or older.
What does outpatient care include?
Three Rivers runs psychiatric intensive outpatient care for adults in person and virtually. A virtual session doesn't require a trip to West Columbia, so work doesn't have to stop for that trip.
Intensive outpatient care for chemical dependency is available as a step down. Chemical dependency outpatient care is for adults age 18 and up.
I want to point out that medical detox is part of the dual diagnosis program, along with care for a psychiatric illness.
