Reviews of Oschner North Shore left on secondary sites did not make specific reference to the psychiatric, behavioral medicine, or addiction treatment programs. Twenty-four Google <strong>reviews of the general hospital were split between positive and negative</strong>, averaging a rating of 2.8 out of five stars. Some praised for helpfulness, and others criticized staff for rudeness. Long wait times and efficient service also both received contradictory comments.<small class="footnote"><a href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small></p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>The sole loved one polled by Rehabs.com at the time of this writing provided generally positive feedback. On a scale of one to five, <strong>they rated the effectiveness of treatment five stars</strong> and would recommend the program with no weaknesses identified. Most metrics measuring specific aspects of treatment also reflected strong satisfaction, including ratings of four stars apiece for the <strong>quality of treatment for co-occurring addiction and mental illness</strong>, the availability of counseling approach options, and the level of staff training and experience. Opportunities for family participation, however, along with affordability of treatment, both received three stars.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>While Medicare and some other insurance plans are accepted, the hospital's website emphasizes the responsibility of patients to confirm coverage. Some clients may qualify for payment plans. </p> <p><small class="footnote"><a href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://goo.gl/8D1zj6">https://goo.gl/8D1zj6</a></small></p>
