Our Fees
The following is the scale of charges for our Residential and Intensive Outpatient treatment,
in addition to other services.
Colorado Recovery is committed to treatment that is both innovative and comprehensive. A selection of our services are often not covered by many commercial insurances as a result. However, our team will work with you to review your individual financial considerations in the construction of your treatment plan. We also support you by providing completed claims forms for you to submit to your insurance company for any services that might be eligible for some reimbursement.
Please contact our Intake Coordinator at 720-218-4068 or email us at info@coloradorecovery.com to discuss your or your family member’s individual situation, and we will assist you in determining approximate costs.
