Payment and refund policy

Reservations, payment and refunds

How do I reserve a place?

To reserve a place in the program, we require a 50% reservation deposit of the first month's fee before arrival. We accept credit cards and international wire transfers, and you can pay the deposit online with the Reserve buttons above.

Places can be reserved up to 2 weeks before arrival. Otherwise, admission is first come, first served, subject to availability.

What if I cancel or can't arrive on the reserved date?

If you cancel your reservation 7 days before arriving, you receive a full refund.

If a client does not arrive within 7 days of the reserved arrival date without contacting our admissions team, CRTC may keep the reservation deposit to cover the time reserved. We will make every effort to reschedule the arrival and apply the deposit to the payment.

When is the full payment due?

Full payment is due on arrival at the center.

What if I need to leave treatment early?

We understand that circumstances beyond your control can arise, and we review each case individually. If you need to leave early for valid reasons before completing treatment, we offer a credit for the days paid and unused, valid for up to 6 months after your departure date.

What happens if a client breaks the rules or leaves against medical advice?

As part of admissions, each client receives a detailed list of rules for their stay. If a client breaks these rules, CRTC may discharge them immediately without a refund.

A client who leaves treatment against medical advice (AMA) forfeits their payment and is not eligible for a refund. They can return only after a 10-day cooling-off period, subject to approval by the clinical staff, and must pay for treatment again.
