Eastern Colorado Healthcare System - Rocky Mountain Regional VAMC

They provide outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Denver is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

They detox from opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines and methamphetamines. Which substances a place handles matters more than the word detox, and none of the 8 centers near Aurora offer one at all.

Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Aurora has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.

Their programs are for adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. The group you sit in is usually built around the age band, which in Aurora can mean one group rather than several.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Aurora offers both.

Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Aurora differ on it.

Nobody prices this from a listing. It turns on the level of care, the length, and what a plan is willing to approve. Every state operates a publicly funded system with its own intake line, separate from anything a private center offers. Get the figure in writing if you can, and ask what happens if you need longer than the program length.

The number quoted is almost always the first block, and the whole arc of treatment runs longer than that block. Outpatient programs often involve three to five sessions a week at first, then taper to one. Ask how many hours of treatment a day the length actually contains.
