UNDERSTANDING TREATMENT OPTIONS

How to Get Substance Use Services

If you think you or a family member needs substance use services and are Medi-Cal beneficiaries or uninsured, call the toll-free Access Line at 1-888-376-6246. The Access Line will perform a screening and provide a referral to a DMC-ODS Plan provider, who will perform an assessment to determine medical necessity based on American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) criteria. Privately insured individuals should contact their insurance carrier for a list of covered providers.

WHAT ARE DMC-ODS WAIVER SERVICES?

DMC-ODS Plan services are health care services for people who have at least one Substance Use Disorder that the regular doctor cannot treat. DMC-ODS services include Outpatient Services, Intensive Outpatient Treatment, Residential Treatment, Withdrawal Management, Opioid Treatment, Medication Assisted Treatment, Recovery Services and Case Management. The American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) produces the criteria to improve access to care, assessment, patient-centered service plans and efficient outcomes-driven treatment and recovery services. For more information on DMC-ODS, please visit our website at: www.stancounty.com/bhrs/pdf/StanislausCountyFINALIP.pdf or call DMC-ODS Stanislaus County Access Line (Toll-Free 24-Hour) 1-888-376-6246

TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR AN OPIOID USE DISORDER

OPIOID USE DISORDER TREATMENT

The Opioid Use Disorder Treatment program provides daily or several times weekly medication and counseling available to maintain stability for those with an opioid use disorder. Studies show that people with an opioid use disorder who follow detoxification with complete abstinence are very likely to relapse, or return to using the drug. While relapse is a normal step on the path to recovery, it can also be life threatening, raising the risk for a fatal overdose. An important way to support recovery from heroin or prescription opioid use disorder is to maintain abstinence from those drugs. Someone in recovery can also use medications that reduce the negative effects of withdrawal and cravings without producing the euphoria that the original drug of abuse caused.

WHAT IS MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT?

Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) provides ordering, prescribing, administering and monitoring of medications for substance use disorders.

  • Medication can safely reduce opioid craving and withdrawal, allowing the brain to balance and heal during recovery
  • MAT decreases opioid misuse and reduces opioid-related overdoses and deaths
  • An individualized assessment and medical plan are required
  • MAT is not a one-size-fits-all approach
  • MAT does not substitute one addiction for another
  • MAT is not a substitute for counseling and behavioral therapies
