Our Outpatient Programs for Medicare Clients

Intensive Outpatient (IOP)

Ideal for those needing more support than traditional outpatient care but not residential supervision. Multiple therapy sessions per week allow you to live at home and maintain work/family commitments.

Regular Outpatient (OP)

Ongoing support with less frequent sessions. Suitable for stepping down from IOP or for less severe challenges, focusing on relapse prevention and coping skills.

Medicare Coverage for MAT Medications

Coverage varies significantly by drug type (Part B vs. Part D) and administration method. Note that medications like Brixadi, Sublocade, and Vivitrol are typically covered under medical benefits.

Does Medicare Cover Alcohol Rehab?

Yes, Medicare covers alcohol rehab as a medically necessary outpatient service. Medicare Part B covers outpatient alcohol treatment including individual therapy, group counseling, intensive outpatient programs (IOP), and psychiatric care related to alcohol use disorder. If you are seeking Medicare alcohol rehab on Long Island, Integrity Treatment Partners accepts Medicare Part B and most Medicare Advantage plans.

Medicare also covers medication-assisted treatment for alcohol addiction, including Vivitrol (naltrexone) injections under Part B. For Medicare beneficiaries struggling with alcohol use disorder, our outpatient alcohol rehab program provides evidence-based care including CBT, relapse prevention, dual diagnosis treatment, and family counseling. Medicare typically covers 80-100% of these services after your annual deductible is met.

Many people ask whether Medicare covers alcohol rehab because they assume addiction treatment is not included. Under federal parity laws, Medicare must cover substance use disorder treatment comparably to other medical conditions.
