Olive Hill has 1 AA group, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

The nearest other center is 4.0 miles away, in Olive Hill, and there are 5 inside 14 miles.

They have a program for veterans. Ask whether the group is veterans only, because for a lot of people that is the point of it and in Olive Hill it may be mixed.

The spread is enormous, from state funded care at no cost to private residential rates that need financing. A quote for 30 days and a quote for 90 days get presented the same way, so the length is the first thing to check. Ask what someone on your plan usually ends up paying, which is a different question from the list price.

It is treatment that includes a prescription, most often buprenorphine, naltrexone or methadone. Treatment that combines medication with counseling holds people in care longer than either on its own. Ask who prescribes, how often you would be seen, and where the prescription is filled.
