The Blanchard Institute is an outpatient facility, but a client’s ability to continue working during treatment varies according to the program they’re enrolled in. Day Treatment, or PHP, requires clients to be at our facility throughout the day.
However, our IOP, Outpatient Program, and Recovery Management program often include professionals that continue to work while attending treatment sessions.
The Blanchard Institute offers several levels of care and pricing structures. Your level of care is determined during the assessment process. Total charges are based on the services received, length of stay, and insurance reimbursement. Many insurance plans provide coverage for your treatment, but the type and amount depend on your specific plan. Our financial staff is available to answer any questions you might have.

The assessment process may take several hours to complete. Intake forms will be completed, followed by a financial consultation with our billing coordinator.

If necessary, detoxification and physical stabilization may begin at this point. Finally, you’ll go through an orientation of our policies and procedures, as well as an overview of your treatment plan.
