Stepworks of Bowling Green - Residential Treatment Services

They are set up for 3 levels: inpatient residential, telemedicine and detox. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Bowling Green, 3 offer a bed.

They detox from opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine and methamphetamines. Coming off opioids without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 1 places near Bowling Green that do it.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Bowling Green offers both.

Bowling Green has 37 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Veterans are one of the 10 groups they offer a dedicated program for.

They treat both. Confirm it for the specific diagnosis rather than in general, because transitional services and recovery support services covers a lot of ground and Bowling Green may have a narrower service than a bigger city would.

Plans sold on the marketplace have to include addiction treatment, so the open question is which level of care yours will approve. Approval can arrive in stages, with the detox cleared while the level of care after it is still under review. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can look at the plan with you before you commit to anything.

Addiction treatment records carry a stronger legal protection than the rest of a medical file. An authorization carries an end date and stops when that date passes, rather than running on indefinitely. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.
