Our Step-by-Step Admissions Process

Step 1: Initial Call

You reach out to Madison Recovery Center—either by phone or online. Our admissions team listens to your concerns and answers any immediate questions you have.

Step 2: Insurance Verification

We quickly verify your insurance benefits and explain your coverage, so you understand what’s covered and what your options are.

Step 3: Intake Assessment

You’ll complete a confidential intake form that includes your personal and medical history, substance use, mental health background, and any immediate concerns. Then, we’ll help you figure out your travel plans.

Step 4: Biopsychosocial Evaluation

Once you arrive, a licensed clinician will guide you through a detailed biopsychosocial assessment to gain a deeper understanding of your emotional, psychological, social, and physical health.

Step 5: Medical and Psychiatric Evaluations

You’ll meet with our medical and psychiatric team to review your physical health, any medication needs, and co-occurring mental health conditions.

Step 6: Customized Treatment Plan

Once all assessments are complete, we collaborate with you to build a personalized treatment plan. This plan outlines the level of care that’s right for you—whether that’s PHP, IOP, Virtual IOP, or ongoing support like sober living.

Step 7: Start Treatment

You begin outpatient care with a team of compassionate professionals by your side. Every step is explained and supported. You’re never alone in this process.

Our Outpatient Treatment Strategy

Madison Recovery Center offers several levels of care, depending on your needs. All of these levels of care are outpatient, which means you’ll return home at the end of each day. We utilize a multi-phase method for recovery, designed to progress at a pace suitable for you. With each phase, there will be adjustments in your treatment program, and your duration at the facility will gradually decrease.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP):

A structured program that includes several hours of treatment per day, five days a week. It’s ideal for people who need support throughout the day but can return home in the evening.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP):

This step-down level of care provides three to five days of weekly support, with morning or evening sessions. IOP allows you to return to work, care for family, and stay rooted in your recovery.

Virtual IOP:

For those who need flexibility or cannot travel to the facility, our fully remote program brings therapy, group sessions, and individual support right to your phone or computer.

Sober Living Support:

If you need a safe place to stay while attending outpatient treatment, we can help connect you with trusted sober living environments that foster accountability and healing.
