Dover Behavioral Health provides both inpatient (hospitalization) and outpatient treatment options to accommodate different levels of medical need and personal circumstances. For individuals requiring medical support during early recovery, detoxification services are available in a hospital setting, where patients receive 24-hour monitoring and care to safely manage withdrawal symptoms. The facility also offers medication-assisted treatment using buprenorphine, an FDA-approved medication that reduces cravings and supports long-term recovery from opioid addiction. Additionally, Dover Behavioral Health specializes in treating co-occurring mental and substance use disorders, recognizing that depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health conditions often accompany addiction and require integrated, simultaneous treatment for sustainable recovery.
Dover Behavioral Health accepts a broad range of insurance plans and payment options to ensure that financial concerns do not prevent access to care. The facility works with Medicaid, Medicare, private health insurance, military insurance (VA/TriCare), and state-financed programs, and also accommodates self-pay patients. Insurance coverage for mental health and substance abuse treatment is protected under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, meaning that addiction treatment benefits must be covered at the same level as other medical conditions. The admissions team is available to verify your specific coverage and answer questions about costs and financial assistance options.
