Good program for sustained goal achievement
I appreciate the focused guidance on addressing the issues surrounding my substance abuse. Having the prescribed medication was great to create the initial breakthrough and allow a change in lifestyle over time. Michael was helpful in assisting me in changing goals for myself and helping me develop tools and strategies to combat falling back into old habits and behaviors.

Thank you for this — we're so glad the program gave you a real path forward. That combination of medication and coaching is exactly how it's meant to work, and it sounds like Michael made a genuine difference. Wishing you all the best as you keep building on the progress you've made.
Cheers!

They will harass you about setting up appointments. They will want you to schedule appointments frequently. If you schedule your appointments 1 month apart you will receive tons of phone calls and messages.
The coaching sessions are weird. You are better off with an actual therapist.

Pause Button vs Easy Button
It has been important to me to hit the Pause Button and take some time to work on myself. The Pause Button is different from the Easy Button. Making a change in my life isn't easy, but it's okay to pause, take a deep breath and go to work on my mind, body, and spirit.
I give Ria a lot of credit for helping make that possible. Coach Bobby has been a vital resource, terrific coach, and life guide. His gift is appreciated.

Real change takes courage, and we're honored to be part of your journey. We'll make sure Bobby sees this. Thank you for sharing.

Ria is the best choice I made after deciding to get help with my alcohol consumption. They give you sessions where you can learn, workbooks to utilize, group sessions, health check-ins, and coaching. Changing would have been hard by myself but the education, knowledge, tips, and support that Ria gave me was all that I needed.

RIA worked for me!
I’ve been in the RIA program for almost 7 months now and have remained sober the entire time. I truly can’t say enough positive things about the program, especially my coach, Michelle S. She has been such a blessing throughout this journey.
Every time we meet, I feel genuinely cared for, heard, and supported. Michelle truly listens, takes an interest in what I have to say, and always encourages and cheers me on. Because of her guidance and support, I’ve learned so much about my relationship with drinking and about myself as a person.
I’m incredibly grateful to have had Michelle by my side during this journey, and I highly recommend both her and the RIA program to anyone looking for support and lasting change with their relationship with alcohol.

I had a fantastic experience with Daniel Marsden as my coach. He supported me throughout my journey and was incredibly kind.
Customer services was always great, and my medical appointments were great as well.
Overall, I would recommend this program.

This program changed my life
This program changed my life. I was one that was not addicted to alcohol but tended to overdue it causing endless anxiety and panic attacks in the days that followed. Sean and I hit it off from the beginning. He spoke about his issues versus mine. Medication was available and I always had it on hand but actually never started or needed it. The doctors nor Sean never pushed me to take anything unless I felt it was needed.
The doctors and Sean have been amazing and it made me realize that alcohol was the root of my anxiety. I encourage anyone that is struggling to at least speak to the program and see how it can change your life with just having support and someone to hold you accountable weekly.
Good luck and thank you!

Takes time but works
This program got my alcohol use disorder totally controlled. If you follow the method and give yourself months to years.....you should succeed.
Started as a smoker and drinker, ended free and clear from both. RIA offered me the support on rehab level with the comfort of home. My coach was amazing. Offering tips of success and accountability during every session. The nurse care was also great. Any uncomfortable symptoms were addressed. All in all, grateful for the opportunity to have met this team. Glad I joined

They take the time to listen
They take the time to listen, care and understand on an individual basis.
Please do not trust Ria health. They will “qualify” you through your insurance telling you that no matter what you will not have to pay more than $300/month. Then a couple months go by without receiving a bill, and this is the kicker which they do on purpose so that they can continue to overcharge you for services, then two days before your first bill is due they will hit you with a $864 bill. At which point you cannot contact customer service directly. You have to call and leave a voicemail and wait 2 business days for someone to contact you. Then once they get you on the phone they will inform you that you signed up for this service and will unknowingly be charged this amount every month but will only have to pay $300/month until the entire balance is paid off. I tried to fight it and decided to pay the balance off because I didn’t want my credit to be affected since I am trying to purchase my first home and they are STILL charging my credit card $300/month. DO NOT TRUST RIA HEALTH

We’re sorry to hear about your experience. Without access to your specific account details, we’re responding based only on what you shared.
From your mention of the $300 monthly amount, it sounds like you may have been enrolled in our high-deductible payment option. In those cases, the total amount owed is determined by the patient’s insurance provider based on their deductible — not by Ria Health. The $300/month is a structured payment plan to make that balance more manageable once insurance processes the claim and determines patient responsibility.
Insurance processing timelines vary and can sometimes result in balances appearing later than expected.
When billing questions arise, we review the account details and, if necessary, coordinate directly with the insurance provider to confirm how the claim was processed. That review can take a business day or two to ensure the information is accurate and that is why we ask you give us 2 business days to respond.
If you believe there has been an error, we would absolutely like to review your account and work with your insurance provider if needed. Please contact us so we can look into the details and make sure everything is resolved properly.

I was really hopeful this would help... disappointed.
I was really hopeful.
I went through the intake with Anisa? No follow up via phone or email.
So I came here to read the reviews.
If you are looking for help, look elsewhere.
Ria Health took my insurance information down and told me they accepted my insurance and it would be a $35 copay per session. The sessions were very quick and impersonal, I stopped making appointments as they were not helpful. Two months later I’ve been slapped with a $1200 bill with no insurance applied to it. DO NOT trust them. It’s worth it though go the long route and see a trustworthy, transparent doctor instead.

We’re sorry to hear this was your experience. Without knowing the specifics of your individual case, we can only respond based on what you’ve shared.
When insurance information is provided, we verify eligibility and benefits based on the information supplied by the insurance carrier at the time of enrollment. However, final coverage decisions and patient responsibility are determined by the insurer once claims are formally processed, and how services are applied (such as toward a deductible) depends on the terms of the patient’s individual plan.
Ria Health has supported thousands of patients nationwide, and we take billing transparency seriously. If your insurance was not applied as expected, we would absolutely like to review the claim details and work directly with your insurance provider to confirm how it was processed.
Please contact us so we can look into your account and ensure everything is accurate.

This is a money racket
This is a money racket. They qualify you through some unlicensed, impersonal call, where they essentially qualify you as a lead.
Imagine going to the doctor and the person at the check-in desk says you're not a fit and refuses service.
They ask for all your information, via paid ads, mind you, and then still make you jump through hoops.

Poorly executed program overall
Was excited to begin. Onboarding was a bit overwhelming but I though I could clear it up through my coach. 30 minute meetings were scheduled but was never on the phone for longer than 10. Advice given was juvenile. Coach was supposed to provide tasks on the portal but failed to do so. Medications do not work. PA promised to fill RX but failed to do so.
Oh, also was initially qualified with my insurance but after first month was told that I needed to self pay at a "discounted rate". My insurance must have gotten wind of the program and taken it off their approved vendor list.
Just say no to Ria.

Find somewhere else for support
When I called Ria health asking if they did ambulatory telehealth detox for mild alcohol withdrawal they said they did. It was a Friday, but the intake coordinator ensured me a nurse would call by EOD and discuss comfort meds to ease the symptoms. When the nurse called she said they don’t do any medication without seeing a doctor first, which wasn’t until Monday. So communication is lacking at best; when I cancelled by membership they emailed to confirm but also ensured me they would bill my insurance for any “services” rendered. No services were rendered and I plan to call my insurance and inform them of fraud waste and abuse if they attempt to bill for high amounts of money.
