Financial Consideration
Fairhaven is a Residential and Outpatient Treatment Center, not an inpatient treatment facility. This distinction is important to your insurance carrier and there may be specific coverage language in your insurance policy regarding residential care.
Fairhaven Treatment Center is not a licensed provider for Medicare, however we will submit requests for single case agreements with Tricare and some Medicaid plans, as well as out-of-network commercial insurance plans. Fairhaven does accept insurance payments from multiple insurance carriers. We will be happy to discuss this with you as part of the initial assessment process.
