Finding a program that has a detoxification center will make the withdrawal process much safer and less painful than going cold turkey.

Anyone who has taken fentanyl for a long period of time understands the downside when developing a dependency on the drug. With fentanyl being found in almost every street drug available on the black market today the chances of an accidental overdose are very good. Fortunately, Fentanyl misuse is a treatable condition. Finding a detox center and or rehab center program is the best way to avoid an accidental overdose. Going to inpatient treatment for Fentanyl addiction will be one of the best decisions you can make for yourself or a loved one who is dependent on Fentanyl.
Treatment protocols for Fentanyl addiction are not much different from other opioid treatment protocols. The first step in recovery will be to assess if there is a necessity for detox, and what type of detox protocols would best serve the current use patterns and size of dosage.

Will insurance pay for treatment and detox for Fentanyl addiction?
You can use private health insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, Blue Cross, Aetna, United Healthcare, and others to cover treatment for fentanyl addiction. Insurance companies will cover some or most of the expenses when you use your plan to cover addiction services. Many drug rehab facilities are in-network with major healthcare providers making it less expensive to enter treatment for fentanyl abuse. Addiction specialists will be able to check your coverage and help you decide which program is right for you.
Most insurance plans will cover some or part of your detox program even if your doctor has prescribed the fentanyl, you have been misusing. Insurance companies have a set of treatment protocols that they must follow when it comes to addiction, but levels of coverage may vary from plan to plan. We can help you verify your benefits and see if your plan is in-network with one of the fentanyl detox centers near you. You can also call the number on the back of your insurance card and see what your coverage and out-of-pocket expenses are so you can be prepared and understand your financial responsibilities.
How much does a detox for Fentanyl cost?
The price of private detox for most opioids and derivatives can range from about $3,000-20,000 dollars depending on the detox program and type of detox offered. The most expensive detox available is rapid detox which is not usually covered by health insurance. There are also social detox centers and outpatient detoxification programs that can be very low cost or no cost depending on the program. Fentanyl is one of the most addictive opioids that a person can be prescribed. Fentanyl is 50 to 100 times more potent than other opioids in the same family leading to a nationwide epidemic. With fentanyl adding to the ongoing opioid crisis in the country rehab centers, detox facilities, and medication-assisted treatment programs in Alaska are the first defense to help.
