PHP is intensive daytime treatment for patients who need more than standard outpatient but do not require overnight supervision.
Kentucky Medicaid plans typically cover PHP (ASAM 2.5) based on medical-necessity determination. PHP admissions are generally handled through notification and concurrent review rather than lengthy pre-authorization.

A PHP day combines individual therapy, group therapy (CBT, DBT, trauma-focused, relapse prevention), psychoeducation, medication management, and family involvement. Evenings and weekends are spent at home or in a sober living environment with recovery-focused support.
