Frequently Asked Questions
Most rehab facilities in Maryland accept private insurance, self-pay, and sometimes offer financing options. It's best to contact the admissions department of your chosen facility to verify your insurance benefits and discuss payment plans. State-funded options may also be available for those who qualify.
Inpatient (or residential) treatment requires you to live at the facility 24/7, providing an immersive, highly structured environment. Outpatient treatment (like PHP or IOP) allows you to live at home while attending scheduled therapy sessions, offering more flexibility to maintain work or family commitments.
Maryland is home to some of the nation's most respected medical institutions and offers a high standard of clinical care. Its diverse settings, from the Chesapeake Bay to suburban communities, provide a range of environments for healing and recovery.
You should typically bring about a week's worth of comfortable clothing, essential toiletries (alcohol-free), your ID and insurance card, and a list of important phone numbers. Most facilities will provide a detailed packing list. Leave valuables, electronics, and non-prescribed medications at home.

When comparing alcohol and drug rehab centers in Maryland, consider clinical quality, level of care, location, and practical factors like insurance coverage or out-of-pocket cost. Many facilities in Baltimore and the D.C. suburbs offer a full continuum of care, while rehabs on the Eastern Shore may provide more retreat-style settings. Use this checklist when comparing rehab centers in Maryland so you can match the level of care to your needs.
- Level of care: Does the program offer medical detox, residential treatment, and/or outpatient care?
- Co-occurring care: Can they treat co-existing mental health conditions like depression, PTSD, or anxiety?
- Insurance & payment: Are they in-network with your health plan or willing to verify benefits up front?
- Specialty programs: Look for tracks for teens, veterans, professionals, or gender-specific care if relevant.
