Please be assured that your interest in treatment for a loved one or yourself will be held in the strictest confidence by our staff.

Whether or not you decide to enter one of the treatment programs at Las Vegas Recovery Center, our Admissions Specialists are willing and happy to help you.

Before contacting Las Vegas Recovery Center, we would like to make you aware of a few important details:

At Las Vegas Recovery Center we believe in being straightforward concerning the reality of insurance authorization patterns. Unfortunately, history in our field often reveals that once a client has completed medical detoxification, most insurance providers deny coverage and recommend a lower level of care for completion of treatment—typically in the form of outpatient treatment, regardless of available benefits quoted by insurance companies.

Las Vegas Recovery Center has an entire team dedicated to working with insurance companies in order to maximize client benefits. We review any financial responsibility in the event insurance denies treatment. If an individual qualifies for benefits, we will make sure they receive them.

If you are 100 percent dependent on insurance to cover treatment and are unable to qualify for enough benefits to complete a phase of our inpatient addiction treatment or pain treatment program, we can work with you to find proper treatment.
