What stimulant detox involves

Stimulant detox is supportive care during the crash: sleep, meals, fluids and monitoring of mood.

Ask programs near Washington what support they offer for sleep and mood, and how they hand you off to ongoing treatment.

Using your insurance

Before you call a program, have your insurance card ready and ask three things: is the program in network, does the level of care need prior authorization, and what will you owe after the deductible. Plans regulated by federal parity law cannot set stricter limits on addiction care than on comparable medical care. Our insurance guides walk through major carriers.
