Drug/Alcohol Assessments
Assessments are often composed of multiple data sources such as current and past tests, psychological history, treatment history, mental illness, family, legal, health, social, employment, and past and present alcohol and drug use. The goal is to ensure the substance user is placed in the appropriate setting for optimal results. It is important to understand that assessments for drugs and alcohol are ever-evolving as the substance users’ needs, severity, and level of care change throughout their treatment stay.
The first step for treatment services is an Alcohol or Drug Assessment (AOD). The assessment will indicate which services are appropriate and the length of those services.
Medicaid/Sooner Care/Sooner Select or the Oklahoma General Substance Abuse Contract will pay for an AOD when the client attends all recommended services.
For Self-Pay clients, the cost for the assessment is $175.
