Mercy Hospital South in St. Louis, MO offers Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) for both adults and adolescents struggling with their mental health, coping responses to life stressors, and/or co-occurring substance use issues.

IOP services are covered by most commercial insurance providers with an average length of stay of four to five weeks.
