Is medication assisted treatment effective?
For many people the medication is what makes the rest of the treatment possible, rather than a replacement for it. Not every center is licensed for every medication, so what is on offer varies more than the clinical picture does. If a program rules medication out entirely, it is worth knowing that before you arrive.
How long is the wait?
Detox beds turn over fastest because the stays are shortest. Many programs offer an interim option while you wait, usually outpatient sessions or a daily check in. Ask whether the wait changes if you are willing to start at a different level of care.
