What to Expect in the Addiction Admissions Process

Getting help for addiction is not an easy choice. At Sobriety Options we make the addiction admissions process as streamlined and as easy as possible. Our team is available 24/7 to answer any questions that potential clients and their family may have. During the process we respect 100% confidentiality and privacy for every individual that calls us. Potential clients can rest assured knowing they’re in good hands.

Step 1 of the Admissions Process

The admissions process begins with the first call. The goal of this call is to get to know what you or your loved one is struggling with. After learning about the potential client, the admissions team gives insight into the treatment programs we offer. Recommending which program may fit your needs best.

During this admissions call we will also discuss payment methods with you. We accept most major insurance companies. Prepare to provide your insurance company and policy number. Then, our admissions team will reach out to your insurance provider directly to verify your benefits. This will determine how much your policy will cover and what will need to be paid out of pocket.

Setting up a Treatment Plan

After the first call and discussing insurance coverage, a doctor will be brought into the admissions process. They will conduct a brief clinical assessment over the phone to determine the substance(s) used. During this call, the doctor will also ask about your personal medical history and any relevant family history. All of this data remains confidential.

The doctor and other care providers will use the information obtained in this admissions call to craft a treatment plan that caters directly to your needs.

Upon Arrival

Upon arriving at a Sobriety Options treatment center, the same doctor you spoke with over the phone will give you a medical assessment. This determines what type of medications are needed during detox, how long detox should last, and what steps follow.

The medical assessment will include doctors, psychiatrists, licensed therapists, and other clinicians that are going to be with you from start to finish.

At Sobriety Options, we work hard to make sure you’re met with open arms and a supportive environment when you speak with our admissions team.
