When you’re experiencing mental health challenges, you can experience mild to severe symptoms. They may affect your professional, academic, or personal responsibilities, creating additional hardships. A Mission For Michael is recognized as a leading treatment provider in California, Minnesota, and Virginia. We provide whole-person care, encompassing evidence-based approaches, holistic treatments, and wellness programs.
We provide treatment for an assortment of mental health disorders including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and trauma-related conditions. Our admission counselors can walk you through a comprehensive assessment that helps us determine which treatment options would be the most impactful for you. While we do not offer Partial Hospitalization Programming (PHP) within our facilities, we do believe that it is important to be knowledgeable of all your treatment options. There are some cases where we recommend continued outpatient care, such as a behavioral health day program, for those who require continued support after completing our treatment program.
Partial Hospitalization Programming (PHP), also known as day treatment programs, is an intensive outpatient treatment option. PHPs provide you with a full day of therapeutic programming, without requiring overnight stays within the treatment facility. PHP therapy is helpful for moderate to severe conditions that require structured care to aid in maintaining a healthy routine.
Mental health PHP programs often combine the use of individual therapy, group therapy, life skill training, and medication management services. These structured day treatment programs can be used to treat a range of mental health disorders including mood disorders, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, borderline personality disorder, and trauma-related disorders.
Partial hospitalization services do resemble inpatient treatment programs, with the notable difference being that they occur in an outpatient treatment facility. Intensive day programs can be used as a step-down from an inpatient program, or as an alternative to inpatient care in some cases.
PHP is an abbreviation that stands for partial hospitalization programming. This term is widely recognized by insurance providers as an outpatient treatment option. Substance abuse PHP and mental health PHP may be included in insurance coverage options. Psychiatric day programs may require prior authorization for a smooth claims process.
Your health insurance policy may have limitations or exclusions for PHPs. Common limitations include session caps and restrictions to in-network treatment providers. To learn more about the scope of your insurance coverage, we encourage you to complete the AMFMÂ insurance verification form.
We accept most major insurance providers and can check your coverage levels for you.
If we are not an appropriate provider for care, we will assist in finding a care provider that can help.Â
Recovery-focused PHP treatment is an ideal treatment option in some cases. This would include those with moderate to severe mental health conditions who need intensive support but do not require 24/7 professional support. PHP counseling programs allow you to receive intensive support while you continue living in your home environment.
With that being said, it is important to note that day hospital programs are not always an alternative to inpatient care. Individuals who require stabilization services or are unable to cope with challenges in their home environment may require a higher level of care.
To learn about the details of your mental health insurance, we encourage you to complete the AMFM insurance verification form. This provides us with needed information, allowing us to contact your insurance provider directly and inquire about the details of your coverage.
Our admission team will confirm your benefits and determine your potential out-of-pocket costs. We will also inquire about required authorizations, limitations, and exclusions associated with your coverage. Call us today to get started.

Your health insurance policy may provide coverage for PHP for mental health disorders. Health coverage does vary and is dependent on your insurance carrier and specific policy. Insured individuals can commonly access therapy, counseling, skill-building sessions, and medication management services.
It is not uncommon for insurance plans to have limitations and exclusions for outpatient day programs. Some plans require prior authorizations for a smooth health insurance claims process. You may also be responsible for paying premiums, deductibles, and copayments. During the underwriting process, insurance providers evaluate the risks and liability associated with mental health disorders and their effective treatment options. Individuals who have an umbrella policy, or endorsements, tend to have additional coverage options for mental health needs.
Many health insurance companies do provide some form of coverage for PHP for mental health disorders. Your coverage may vary for specialized programs like dual diagnosis day programs. Your policy may provide you with coverage for some, if not most, of the costs associated with PHP support services.
Verifying your coverage can help you understand important details of your coverage including required authorizations, network provider requirements, and session caps. Contact AMFM Mental Health Treatment Centers today for support and guidance in understanding your healthcare policy.

The cost of PHP mental health care with insurance can fluctuate greatly and is heavily dependent on the details of your insurance policy. You may be responsible for copayments, deductibles, or premiums. Copayments can range from $20 to $50, or even more, depending on your policy.
Other factors that influence the cost of treatment are the location of the treatment center, available amenities and services, and the duration of the treatment program. Verifying your coverage can help you understand more about the cost of PHP treatment with insurance, as well as mental health treatment.
The cost of a comprehensive day treatment program can vary significantly, commonly falling between $350 to $450 per day. Day hospital programs commonly run five days per week, which can create financial concerns for those who do not have insurance coverage. We encourage you to not let this discourage you and to inquire about available payment options.
Mental health treatment programs, including some PHP therapy programs, can offer financial assistance options. This can make the cost of behavioral health day programs more manageable.

The first step in having your insurance company pay for treatment is to verify your coverage. This allows you to learn about requirements such as prior authorizations and working with in-network providers. Knowing these details can ensure that you select a treatment provider that allows you to utilize the maximum benefits associated with your policy.
If your plan requires prior authorizations, our professional team at AMFM can help you submit the necessary documentation to complete this process. To further support you, we will submit your medical claims directly to your insurance provider. This allows you to focus on your treatment, without worrying about communicating with your insurance provider. Contact us today for personalized support and guidance.
Some insurance policies have session caps on specialized treatment programs like mental health and dual diagnosis PHP. One component of this is to ensure that you receive evidence-based care that is appropriate for your needs. If you have not experienced clinical gains after engaging in a PHP, you may find an alternative treatment program more impactful.
Some policies allow you to obtain prior authorization for additional coverage, beyond the typical scope of your policy. This is often determined on a case-by-case basis and is dependent on your progress, symptoms, and insurance provider.
Certainly. You can receive partial hospitalization services and pay out of pocket. This is not an uncommon experience because not everyone has insurance coverage or coverage that includes intensive day programs. Treatment facilities may offer payment options like a sliding-scale fee, payment plan, or financial aid.
To learn more about available payment options, we encourage you to contact AMFM. Our team is here to support you on your journey to recovery.
