The facility works with Medicaid, private health insurance, military insurance (VA/TRICARE), state-financed health plans, and self-payment. A sliding fee scale is also available, meaning your cost is adjusted based on your income and other circumstances. Many insurance plans are required by law to provide mental health and substance abuse coverage at parity with medical and surgical benefits, and Thames Valley's team can help explain your coverage.
