At the chemical dependency medical assessment conducted prior to the procedure, the patient and the physician develop a rehabilitation plan specific to the patient's needs. The patient signs a behavioral contract as a requirement to undergo the procedure. Treatment options include individual therapy, outpatient programs, day patient programs, sober living environments, residential treatment centers and acute care hospital programs. To help ensure abstinence during the rehabilitation process, patients are given Naltrexone, a long acting opiate antagonist. Naltrexone nullifies the effects of opiates.
Patients are unable to get and are therefore, less likely to relapse.
Laboratory Fees Included Additional charges may be incurred by patients requiring an extended length of stay for treatment of co-existing chemical dependencies.
