What is Drug Addiction?

Drug addiction โ€” also called substance use disorder โ€” is a complex, chronic medical condition that affects brain chemistry, behavior, and relationships. It can involve any substance: opioids, stimulants, sedatives, cannabis, hallucinogens, or polysubstance use. Like other chronic illnesses, it's treatable. Our team builds personalized treatment plans based on the substances involved, your medical history, and your life circumstances.

โ“ Frequently Asked Questions About Drug Treatment

How long does drug rehab take?

Most drug treatment programs at Exclusive Recovery Centers last 30 to 120 days, with the exact length depending on substances involved, severity, and co-occurring conditions. PHP runs 4-6 weeks; IOP continues 8-16 weeks. Long-term aftercare is recommended.

Is drug withdrawal dangerous?

Withdrawal symptoms vary dramatically by substance. Some withdrawals (alcohol, benzodiazepines) can be life-threatening; others (opioids, stimulants) are severely uncomfortable but not dangerous. Our medical team assesses each client to provide safe, appropriate withdrawal support.

Does insurance cover drug addiction treatment?

Yes. Under the Affordable Care Act and Mental Health Parity Act, most insurance plans are required to cover substance use treatment. Exclusive Recovery Centers accepts 8 major insurance providers. Verify your specific benefits free in under 2 minutes.

Can I work while in drug treatment?

Many of our IOP clients continue working part-time during treatment. Our outpatient model is specifically designed so you don't have to choose between recovery and your responsibilities. Evening and weekend sessions are available.

What's the difference between PHP and IOP for drug?

PHP (Partial Hospitalization) is more intensive โ€” typically 5-6 hours per day, 5 days a week โ€” best for people in early recovery or stepping down from inpatient care. IOP (Intensive Outpatient) is 3 hours per day, 3-5 days per week, designed for people balancing recovery with work, school, or family.

How fast can I start treatment?

We offer same-day admissions when clinically appropriate. Call (747) 500-7070 and you can speak with an admissions specialist immediately. Most clients begin treatment within 24-48 hours.

Is drug addiction treatment confidential?

Absolutely. All treatment at Exclusive Recovery Centers is fully HIPAA-compliant and confidential. Federal law (42 CFR Part 2) provides additional protections for substance use treatment records โ€” stricter than standard medical privacy.
