What Is Intensive Outpatient Substance Abuse Treatment?
Intensive outpatient substance abuse treatment is for drug addicts who cannot take advantage of an inpatient treatment program for a number reasons, ranging from lack of funding to cover the high cost of inpatient care to insurance coverage limitations. Many insurance programs cover outpatient substance abuse treatment. Outpatient treatment provides many of the same services that addicts receive at residential facilities, except the costs are much lower than inpatient care and patients return home at night.
