Levels of care for addiction treatment
Kentucky Medicaid covers the clinical continuum of substance use treatment at Golden Grove Recovery — every level of intensity, from 24/7 medical detox to long-term outpatient. Treatment matched to clinical need.
Treatment matched to clinical need
Most patients move through several levels of care during recovery — starting at higher intensity for stabilization and stepping down as they build the skills and support to maintain recovery in less structured settings.
| Level | ASAM | Duration | Hours / week |
|---|---|---|---|
| Detox | 3.7 | 3–7 days | 24/7 medical oversight |
| Residential | 3.5 | 21–28 days (extended stays available based on medical necessity) | 24/7 clinical support with 30+ hours of structured programming per week |
| PHP | 2.5 | 2–6 weeks | 20–30+ hours per week, typically 5–6 days |
| IOP | 2.1 | 8–12 weeks | 9–19 hours per week, typically 3–5 days |
| Outpatient | 1 | Ongoing — frequency tapers with stability | Under 9 hours per week; often 1–2 sessions weekly |
