Common Questions About Inpatient Mental Health Treatment
This Q&A is not to be used as medical advice, please call today to discuss your options.
-
Does insurance cover mental health treatment?
The Trails is able to accept most health insurance plans and will work closely with your insurance company to secure insurance coverage for your treatment program. Our staff will manage and coordinate every aspect of your admission to facility. We want to take as much stress out of this already stressful situation for you. We will determine your exact insurance coverage and eligibility, will bill your insurance company, and find out what, if any, out-of-pocket expenses (such as co-pays or deductibles) will be needed. You have insurance for a reason, we want it to cover as much of your stay in treatment as possible.
-
How long is your program?
The length of our program is not the same for every person. That said, the average length of inpatient treatment is 30-45 days, though some may choose to stay longer.

What are the rules with phone calls and visitation?
1. There are no direct incoming calls to clients. Family contact is made through staff (counselors, case managers, or resident assistants), or a message is left with our front desk for a return call, that can be completed within the appropriate rules and parameters of phone calls.
2. Clients are allowed to make phone calls to approved family and support persons on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. They have a 5-minute limit on time.
3. Visitation is scheduled every Sunday from 12pm-2pm (for Women) and 4:30pm-6:30pm (for
Men), for approved persons ONLY. If someone is not on the approved list, they will be asked to
leave. The first group of visitors can leave after the first hour and if room is available additional
visitors may check-in and visit during the last hour. There is a 3-person maximum for each client
each week (per hour and not to exceed 3 per hour). The first check-in begins 15 minutes prior to
visitation.4. Any items (money, clothing, etc) must be processed first by the staff before given to the clients. Failure to do so could result in discharge for the client or for the loved one removed from the approved visitation list.

Do you accept couples?
No, we do not accept couples. At The Trails, we believe in an integrated & individualized approach to treatment. With our philosophy, we believe treating couples may distract from the individuals’ treatment plans. We would be happy to provide options of programs that accept couples.
-

No, The Trails is not a lockdown facility. The only types of programs that are “lockdown” are correctional treatment centers and some psychiatric hospitals. Our program is a completely voluntary residential program.

Yes, we provide comprehensive case management. Your case manager will be able to help you coordinate any updates needed for legal purposes.

Yes. The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 is a United States labor law requiring covered employers to provide employees with job-protected, unpaid leave for qualified medical and family reasons. Mental Health treatment is a qualified medical reason under FMLA. If you are worried about your job, our admissions and case management team can help you determine if you are eligible and help you file FMLA.
