For specialized levels of care like medical detoxification, residential inpatient treatment, intensive outpatient programs, medication-assisted treatment with buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone, or sober living homes, confirm availability with the individual listings. Many programs layer these services based on your specific needs and stage of recovery.

Cost is often a barrier to seeking treatment, but all 4 Waterford centers accept multiple forms of payment and insurance to help make care accessible. Payment options include:

• Cash or self-payment
• Medicaid
• Medicare
• State-financed health insurance plans
• Private health insurance
• Federal or government funding for substance use programs

Medicaid is one of the primary funding sources for substance use treatment in Michigan. If you're covered by Medicaid or exploring state-funded options, the Michigan rehab guide offers detailed information on state-specific programs, coverage policies, and how to verify eligibility. Medicare also covers treatment for beneficiaries 65 and older. Private insurance plans vary widely in what they cover, so contacting your insurer before intake helps clarify copays, deductibles, and authorization requirements.

During intake, centers will verify your insurance and walk you through what costs you may be responsible for. If you have limited insurance or no insurance, ask about sliding scale fees, grants, or other financial assistance the program may offer.

Some people prefer to seek treatment outside their home community, whether for privacy, a fresh start, or access to specialized services. If you're willing to travel or want to compare options, several larger cities near Waterford have significantly more treatment centers. Detroit has 41 centers, Grand Rapids has 26, and Flint has 15. Other nearby cities include Lansing with 14 centers, Ann Arbor with 12, and Saginaw with 11.

If travel is difficult due to work, family, or health constraints, many treatment programs now offer telehealth sessions. Telehealth allows you to participate in counseling and group sessions via video or phone, reducing barriers to consistent care. Ask when you call whether a program offers virtual options, and what equipment or settings you'll need for privacy during sessions. Combining telehealth with occasional in-person visits is also an option for many programs.
