About Lahey Health Behavioral Services
Medical detox services at Lahey Health include 24-hour monitoring by medical professionals. These doctors can offer medication to minimize withdrawal symptoms so that detox is safe and as comfortable as possible. Services also include case management and group therapy to prepare for the next step of treatment. The average length of detox is four to six days.
Addiction treatment after detox can be residential or outpatient. The outpatient programs include an intensive outpatient program (IOP), general outpatient care, and telehealth options. Services include individual and group therapy, medication management, medication-assisted treatment, addiction education, and relapse prevention.
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) at Lahey Health involves the use of FDA-approved medications for those who misuse opioids. These medications help participants manage cravings and lower the risk of relapse. When combined with evidence-based treatment, MAT has been shown to help people create a substance-free life that eventually no longer needs medical support.
Lahey Health Behavioral Services accepts most medical insurance plans, which may include Cigna, Humana, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Amerigroup, Ambetter, United Healthcare, and more. Insurance plans vary, so be sure to verify coverage information and out of network benefits with the insurer.
