Greater Boston Addiction Centers

Yes, Greater Boston Addiction Centers is in-network with most major private insurance providers, including BlueCross BlueShield, Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, and many more. Their admissions team can provide a free and confidential verification of your benefits.

For clients paying out-of-pocket, the estimated monthly cost is approximately $12,000 for the Day Treatment (PHP) program and $5,000 for the Intensive Outpatient (IOP) program. If medical detox is needed, they can refer you to a partner facility where the cost is around $1,000 per day. Please call for the most accurate and up-to-date pricing.

While GBAC does not offer detox services on-site, they have strong partnerships with trusted local medical detox facilities. They will coordinate your admission to a partner program to ensure a safe and medically supervised withdrawal before you transition seamlessly into their outpatient care.

GBAC offers two primary levels of outpatient care:
• Day Treatment Program (PHP): An intensive program running 5 days a week from 9:00 AM to 2:30 PM.
• Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): A flexible program with sessions held 3 times a week for 3 hours a day, typically in the evening.

Greater Boston Addiction Centers focuses exclusively on outpatient programs, which allow you to live at home and maintain your daily life while receiving care. Their PHP and IOP programs provide structured clinical support during the day or evening. This differs from inpatient treatment, where you would live at the facility 24/7. When detox is needed, GBAC connects clients to a partner Medical Detox Program for safe withdrawal management before they begin outpatient treatment.

They use a variety of evidence-based therapies proven to be effective for addiction treatment, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed counseling, and motivational interviewing within group and individual settings.
