Common Questions About Outpatient Program

What is an outpatient treatment program?

Outpatient treatment (ASAM Level 1.0) provides ongoing clinical support for individuals who have achieved greater recovery stability and no longer need the structure of IOP or PHP. Blue Heart Services's outpatient program includes individual counseling, case management, peer support, nursing, medication management, psychiatric services, and toxicology screening.

How is outpatient different from IOP?

Outpatient (Level 1.0) involves less frequent sessions than IOP (Level 2.1) and is designed for individuals with a strong foundation in recovery who can manage daily life with less intensive clinical support. Your ASAM level is reviewed continuously, and your care team will recommend stepping down from IOP to outpatient when clinically appropriate.

Is outpatient treatment effective?

Yes. Outpatient treatment is an evidence-based, clinically appropriate level of care for many individuals — particularly those with greater recovery stability. Blue Heart Services's outpatient program follows ASAM criteria to match you to the right level of support.

Can I continue medication-assisted treatment in outpatient?

Yes. Medication management continues through outpatient care at Blue Heart Services. If you are on Suboxone or another clinically appropriate medication, your provider will continue to monitor and adjust your treatment.

What support does outpatient include beyond counseling?

Blue Heart Services's outpatient program includes individual counseling, case management, peer recovery support, nursing availability, medication management, psychiatric services for co-occurring conditions, and toxicology screening — a full spectrum of support at the lowest intensity level of care.
