What Is Inpatient Rehab?

Inpatient (residential) rehab provides 24-hour structured treatment in a live-in facility. Patients receive daily therapy, medical support, and a substance-free environment designed to break the cycle of addiction. This level of care is considered the gold standard for moderate to severe substance use disorders.

Research consistently shows that longer durations of treatment correlate with better outcomes. NIDA recommends a minimum of 90 days of treatment (including aftercare) for optimal results, though significant benefits begin at 28-30 days.

Who Needs Inpatient Treatment?

Inpatient rehab is indicated when outpatient care is insufficient — specifically for individuals with severe physical dependence, co-occurring mental health disorders, history of relapse, unstable housing, or environments that enable continued substance use. ASAM criteria (Levels 3.1-3.7) guide placement decisions based on six clinical dimensions.

Insurance Coverage for Inpatient Rehab

The Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act requires most insurance plans to cover substance abuse treatment, including inpatient rehab, at the same level as medical/surgical benefits. Medicaid covers inpatient treatment in all 50 states (though program availability varies). Private insurers typically cover 28-30 day stays with prior authorization.

Inpatient Rehab: Common Questions

Standard inpatient programs last 28-30 days, though 60-day and 90-day programs show significantly better outcomes. Long-term therapeutic communities can run 6-12 months. The right duration depends on substance type, addiction severity, co-occurring conditions, and prior treatment history.

Without insurance, inpatient rehab typically costs $5,000-$30,000 for a 30-day program. Most private insurance and Medicaid cover inpatient treatment under mental health parity laws. Our advisors can verify your coverage and out-of-pocket costs in minutes.

Inpatient rehab provides a structured daily schedule including individual therapy (typically CBT or DBT), group therapy sessions, psychoeducation, medication management if applicable, exercise or wellness activities, and aftercare planning. Patients live on-site with 24/7 clinical support.

Inpatient is recommended for severe addiction, co-occurring mental health conditions, unstable living situations, or failed outpatient attempts. Outpatient works well for mild-moderate addiction with strong support systems. NIDA research shows inpatient programs have lower relapse rates for severe substance use disorders.
