A New Era in Substance Abuse Treatment: The Organized Delivery System
I believe that's the biggest pro or benefit to this type of system is that we are slowly transitioning back into freedom, with tests along the way, each way where, if you fail some of those tests, you have a very good safety net still to fall back on versus being at home or on the street when it happens.
Imagine a world where substance abuse treatment is not just a series of isolated programs but a seamless journey from detox to recovery. In this episode of 'ROACHE on RECOVERY', the hosts dive into the groundbreaking Organized Delivery System (ODS) pilot plan, set to transform how California tackles substance abuse. San Mateo County is leading the charge as the first in the state to have its ODS pilot approved by both federal and state authorities.
This new managed care system promises a comprehensive approach, covering detox, withdrawal management, and recovery residences, offering patients a safety net as they transition back to everyday life. The episode explores the benefits of this full continuum of care and discusses the challenges that come with such a significant overhaul.
Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just curious about innovative treatment methods, this episode provides valuable insights into what could be a game-changer in the field of substance abuse treatment.
