Introduction to Cost Transparency in Rehab
When couples seek inpatient rehab, one of the most common concerns—after treatment effectiveness—is cost. Rehab programs vary widely in pricing and what is or isn’t included. Trinity Behavioral Health understands the financial anxiety surrounding addiction treatment and aims to provide clear, upfront information regarding costs. For couples seeking healing together, knowing what is included in the cost and whether there are any additional expenses is crucial to making an informed decision.
This article breaks down what couples can expect in terms of cost at Trinity Behavioral Health’s inpatient rehab program, highlighting what’s covered, what may incur additional charges, and how financial planning is supported throughout the process.

What the Standard Program Cost Includes
Trinity Behavioral Health offers a comprehensive inpatient rehab program for couples, and the base cost typically includes all essential services related to addiction recovery. Couples enrolled in the program can expect coverage for the following:
-
Lodging and accommodations: Private or shared rooms with comfortable amenities
-
Meals and nutrition: Three nutritious meals per day, plus snacks, designed by dietary professionals
-
Medical detox (if required): Monitored detox with medication-assisted treatment when needed
-
Therapy sessions: Individual counseling, couples therapy, and group therapy
-
Psychiatric care: Initial psychiatric evaluation and ongoing medication management if needed
-
Case management: Personalized care coordination, progress tracking, and discharge planning
-
Recreational activities: On-site fitness, mindfulness exercises, and wellness programs
-
Educational programming: Recovery-focused classes on coping skills, relapse prevention, and healthy relationships
This all-inclusive model reduces stress for couples and allows them to focus on recovery rather than worrying about unexpected fees cropping up along the way.
Are Private Rooms or Upgrades Extra?
While standard accommodations are included in the program cost, upgraded amenities such as private rooms may incur an additional fee. Trinity Behavioral Health typically offers a range of room options to suit different preferences and budgets:
-
Shared rooms: Included in the base cost
-
Semi-private rooms: Modestly priced upgrade
-
Fully private rooms with en-suite bathrooms: Higher-tier upgrades with added comfort and privacy
Couples interested in specific room configurations are encouraged to ask about availability and pricing during their admission process.
Specialized Therapies and Optional Services
Trinity Behavioral Health is committed to offering evidence-based treatments tailored to each couple’s needs. The standard package includes a broad variety of therapies, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), family counseling, and relapse prevention sessions. However, there may be additional costs for highly specialized therapies or elective services. These can include:
-
EMDR therapy for trauma
-
Equine-assisted therapy or other experiential options
-
Art or music therapy sessions beyond standard programming
-
Chiropractic or massage therapy
-
Acupuncture or holistic services
These optional treatments are offered based on availability and are clearly marked as add-ons, not necessities. Staff works with couples to determine what services may best benefit their unique recovery journey and whether those services fall within the included cost or require out-of-pocket payment.
Medication and Medical Services
Many couples in rehab require medications for detox, mental health disorders, or ongoing health conditions. Trinity Behavioral Health typically includes medication management in its comprehensive program, but whether medication itself is included often depends on:
-
Insurance coverage: Some medications are fully covered by insurance
-
Prescribed drugs not in the facility’s standard formulary: May require co-payment
-
Pre-existing health conditions: May necessitate outside prescriptions or specialist referrals
Medical care, such as routine checkups, urgent care, or lab work, is generally covered. However, unexpected or advanced medical interventions may involve additional charges or external billing.
Family Involvement and External Participation
While the program focuses on the couple, family sessions and external support integration may be offered. Some family therapy sessions or virtual conferences are included, especially when beneficial to recovery. However, if families request additional sessions or services outside the rehab curriculum, there may be nominal charges to account for therapist time or platform access.
Similarly, if a couple requires external legal consultation, document notarization, or vocational assistance during their stay, these services may be coordinated by the facility but billed separately depending on provider policies.
Aftercare Planning and Post-Rehab Support
Trinity Behavioral Health prioritizes continuity of care, and many elements of aftercare are included in the cost of inpatient rehab. These typically include:
-
Discharge planning and coordination with outpatient providers
-
Referrals to support groups or intensive outpatient programs (IOPs)
-
Follow-up check-ins for progress tracking
-
Educational tools for relapse prevention
However, aftercare services delivered after the inpatient stay (such as outpatient therapy, sober living housing, or medications prescribed post-rehab) are billed separately. The facility provides cost estimates and assistance in navigating insurance coverage to help reduce financial strain during this transition.
Insurance Coverage and What It Includes
A significant number of patients at Trinity Behavioral Health use insurance to cover all or part of the rehab cost. Coverage levels vary depending on:
-
Provider network status
-
Type of insurance (private, Medicaid, etc.)
-
Co-pays, deductibles, and out-of-pocket maximums
-
Mental health parity laws (which often require equal coverage for behavioral care)
Insurance often covers core services, including detox, therapy, medical care, and medications. Trinity’s financial staff verifies insurance before admission and explains all potential out-of-pocket expenses in detail so that couples can make a fully informed decision.
Financial Aid and Payment Plans
For couples without full insurance coverage or those facing financial hardship, Trinity Behavioral Health offers financial aid options and payment plans. These may include:
-
Sliding scale fees based on income
-
Deferred payment structures
-
Third-party financing options
-
Grants or nonprofit-funded scholarships (when available)
The admissions team provides financial counseling to help couples explore the most affordable path to treatment.
Transparency During Admission
Trinity Behavioral Health is committed to cost transparency. During the admissions process, couples receive a clear breakdown of all costs, including:
-
What is included in the base program
-
Any optional services or room upgrades
-
Estimated insurance contribution and out-of-pocket costs

This proactive approach ensures that no couple is caught off guard by hidden fees or surprise invoices, creating a trusting and supportive environment from day one.
