You may be balancing work, family, and treatment, and finding an outpatient program that fits your schedule can feel overwhelming. If you’re searching for a php program covered by aetna insurance, you’ve come to the right place. The Hope House offers a partial hospitalization program designed to provide intensive support during the day while you return home each evening. With access to evidence-based therapies, medication-assisted treatment, and step-down care, you can build a foundation for lasting recovery without putting your life on hold.
Explore PHP coverage
Partial hospitalization programs, or PHPs, serve as a bridge between inpatient care and traditional outpatient therapy. PHPs typically involve four to six hours of structured treatment per day, five to seven days a week. You’ll engage in individual and group therapy, family sessions, medication management, and skills-building workshops. PHPs have proven to significantly enhance social functioning, allowing you to apply new coping skills in your home environment immediately [1].
Key PHP benefits
- Intensive support without overnight stays
- Daily exposure to evidence-based therapies
- Opportunities to practice coping strategies at home
- Regular family involvement and education
- Coordination with medical providers for medication-assisted treatment
Cost and utilization
- Average monthly cost: \$10,500–\$13,500 [1]
- 2005 participation: 19,000+ people, avg. 35.6 days of treatment
- 2019 programs: 434 mental health PHP/day treatment centers nationwide
These figures underscore the value and popularity of PHPs for those needing structured care without the constraints of 24/7 hospitalization. At The Hope House, our PHP emphasizes personalized plans, comprehensive care, and the support necessary for lasting recovery.

Embrace step down care
A seamless transition through levels of care—PHP to IOP to outpatient—enhances treatment outcomes by matching intensity to your progress. Step-down care fosters independence while maintaining a safety net:
- PHP: Daily structured therapy and skills training
- IOP: Reduced hours with continued clinical support
- Outpatient therapy: Weekly sessions to reinforce gains
By gradually decreasing treatment intensity, you build confidence, apply what you’ve learned, and maintain momentum toward long-term sobriety. At The Hope House, our care coordinators design your individualized plan to optimize each transition, ensuring you never feel abandoned.
Involve family support
Recovery thrives when loved ones are invested in the process. Family involvement offers:
- Education about addiction and recovery
- Improved communication and conflict resolution
- Enhanced emotional support and accountability
Our family therapy sessions involve loved ones in group and individual meetings, addressing dynamics that contribute to substance use and fostering healthier relationships. When families understand the recovery journey, they become allies in sustaining your progress and preventing relapse.
