This level of care is appropriate for individuals requiring medical detoxification, crisis stabilization, or intensive mental health treatment. The facility specializes in treating co-occurring disorders—cases where patients struggle with both substance use and mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder—recognizing that these conditions often require integrated, simultaneous treatment.

Alta Bates Summit Medical Center accepts multiple forms of payment, including self-payment, Medicaid, Medicare, private health insurance, and military insurance (VA/Tricare), ensuring that insurance coverage does not become a barrier to treatment.

If you are unsure about your coverage or financial options, the admissions team can help clarify your benefits and discuss payment arrangements.
