Rehab in Gastonia - What to Know

Gastonia is the largest city in the county and the seat of Gaston County. The city sits just west of Charlotte along the I-85 corridor.

Eighteen treatment centers in and around Gastonia offer services like medical detox, inpatient and residential care, and many outpatient treatment options. Check out our North Carolina rehab directory for options outside the city limits, including communities across the Charlotte metro and the western Piedmont.

CaroMont Health is the county’s largest health system and a longtime partner in the local overdose response initiatives. They have donated naloxone to law enforcement and helped connect residents to detox and treatment.

Gaston County has also organized response through the Gaston County Controlled Substances Coalition. This was formed in 2016 to coordinate prevention, treatment and harm reduction across agencies.

Understanding the range of addiction treatment options is an important step before you decide on where to get care. Gaston County has a history of heavy opioid overdoses in North Carolina. The overdose pattern began with prescription painkillers and heroin. It is now driven in large part by fentanyl mixed in the street drug supply.

This data supports the need for rapid access to naloxone, medication assisted treatment and care for co-occurring mental health conditions. Our overview of fentanyl addiction and overdose risk explains what to watch for.

Cost of Rehab in Gastonia

Treatment costs in Gastonia depend on the level of care you need, the length of time you're in treatment and whether you use insurance. Statewide cost averages are a useful starting point to find out what different types of care tend to cost in North Carolina.

You can lower your out of pocket expenses by first verifying your insurance benefits and working with the treatment center on public funding and financial assistance when it's possible. Our guide to using insurance for rehab walks you through how to do that.

Gastonia is located within the Charlotte metro area. This influences treatment prices that can run at or near these North Carolina averages. The area's strong outpatient resources gives you lower cost options that don't need an inpatient or residential stay.

Outpatient and inpatient programs are on opposite ends of the cost range for treatment. Cost should not be a barrier to receiving treatment in North Carolina when there are several payment options available to help meet your needs. These factors influence the final number:

Level of care: detox and residential cost more than outpatient
Length of stay: a 30, 60, or 90-day program changes the total
Insurance and network status: in-network care lowers out-of-pocket costs
Amenities and setting: standard versus upscale facilities
Financial help: sliding-scale fees and assistance reduce what you owe
How to Pay for Rehab in Gastonia

There is a wide mix of payment options in the 18 Gastonia facilities in our directory. Most treatment centers accept cash self pay and private insurance. A substantial number of programs work with public coverage and assistance programs.

North Carolina expanded the Medicaid program in December 2023 that allowed more low income adults to qualify for financial help. Below is information on how many local facilities accept each payment type.

Medicaid

Medicaid began covering more adults ages 19 through 64 in December 2023. This broadened access to substance use treatment across the state. Eight Gastonia facilities in our directory accept North Carolina Medicaid and coverage includes medications for opioid use disorder such as buprenorphine and methadone.

Our guide to medication assisted treatment explains how the process works and how it helps ease withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings.

Medicare

Medicare provides insurance coverage for eligible adults aged 65 and older and for some younger people with qualifying disabilities. This coverage includes addiction treatment such as inpatient and outpatient services and medications approved by the FDA for treatment.

However specific costs depend on which parts of Medicare you carry. Four Gastonia facilities in our directory accept Medicare.

Military Benefits

TRICARE often covers veterans and active duty service members. TRICARE is accepted at three local facilities that offer inpatient care, outpatient services, and medication assisted treatment. Veterans enrolled in VA health care can also access substance use treatment through VA clinics in the Charlotte area. These are connected to the Salisbury VA Health Care System. Our rehab resources for veterans and military outline what these benefits cover.

Insurance and Private Pay

Eleven facilities in Gastonia accept private health insurance. Most health plans are mandated to cover addiction treatment at the same level as other medical and surgical care under federal parity rules. This coverage also includes mental health conditions. Your actual cost depends on your plan, deductible and whether a program is in the insurance company's network of providers. Verifying insurance benefits is your single best way to avoid an unexpected bill.

Other Low Cost Options

Seven treatment facilities in Gastonia offer financial assistance and three offer financing so treatment costs can be spread over time. At least one local program offers free treatment and Gaston County’s publicly funded behavioral health system extends care to uninsured residents who meet eligibility criteria. This public program is coordinated through the Partners Health Management LME/MCO. Consider rehab scholarships as another route to covering treatment when you need help financing a specialized treatment program. Many major insurance carriers are accepted across Gastonia facilities, including:

  • Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina
  • Aetna
  • Cigna
  • UnitedHealthcare
  • Humana
  • Ambetter
Levels of Care Available in Gastonia

A broad range of treatment options is available in Gastonia. There is an impressive number of outpatient and co-occurring options alongside detox and inpatient programs. Our directory lists 5 detox facilities, 6 inpatient rehab programs and 14 outpatient clinics. The information below lists what is available locally.

Your treatment may begin with medical detox when you have a physical dependence on substances. Medical detox manages your withdrawal symptoms under supervision. These programs often include medication to ease your symptoms.

After medical detox you might begin an inpatient or residential treatment program for structured, round-the-clock support. At other times widely available outpatient programs may meet your needs as you keep working or caring for your family.

Eleven Gastonia programs treat co-occurring mental health conditions at the same time as substance use disorders. This is called dual diagnosis and is more effective when the diagnoses are treated at the same time. Mental health conditions can include depression, anxiety, PTSD and more.

An aftercare program may follow outpatient treatment to support your long term recovery. Aftercare programs can include job coaching, counseling, 12 step programs and peer support.

Specialty Programs in Gastonia

Many Gastonia facilities offer tailored treatment to specific populations and substances. These programs can make your care feel more relevant. The programs below reflect the specialty options most commonly reported by local providers.

Gastonia’s largest specialty categories reflect the substances driving the most demand. Fifteen programs focus on alcohol use disorder and 14 address opioid use disorder. You have solid options when you need help for the two most common addictions.

Programs focused on opioid use disorder are an especially important part of the local network given the county’s overdose data attributed to fentanyl. Fourteen programs serve young adults and one provider offers LGBTQ+ affirming addiction care. Men’s and women’s tracks round out the specialty options across the city.

Drug and Alcohol Use Statistics in Gastonia

Gaston County’s substance use crisis is documented through county and state public health data. The county has consistently ranked with higher than average overdose rates in North Carolina. This has been driven largely by fentanyl in the street drug supply. Timely access to treatment and naloxone helps protect public health in this environment.

Although statewide average numbers are declining this has not been the uniform experience across communities. Gaston County officials note that overdose numbers have remained stubbornly high even as the state total falls.

The county has steered opioid settlement dollars toward naloxone distribution and treatment capacity in response to these numbers. Check out our overview of national substance use statistics for a broader look at how these figures compare nationally.
