Current Status
With so many people needing treatment, it is important to find ways for more of them to get access to quality and affordable treatment. This could involve a variety of innovations, such as expanded use of on-line tools, Virtual Reality, and more.
Most recovery support services fall under the Recover-Oriented Systems of Care (ROSC) umbrella which follow the recovery-related values and beliefs. These include concepts such as people who suffer from addiction have essential worth and dignity; the stigma related to addiction is something that prevents many people who are addicted from seeking help and this must be combated; there are many paths to recovery; access to treatment is a human right, even though recovery might mean something more; people who are in recovery as well as their families have valuable experiences and support to offer to those who are still struggling with substance abuse. Recovery-Oriented Systems of Care are based on the idea that severe substance use disorders are treated most effectively through a chronic care management model which involves outpatient care, recovery housing, recovery coaching, and management checkups.They are meant to be culturally sensitive and easy to navigate.[1]
Current treatment programs are largely based on the 12-Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), but there is little to no scientific evidence showing that this process is effective. Dr. Lance Dodes stated in the documentary The Business of Recovery that 12-Step programs are typically only helpful for 5-10% of people who partake in them, meaning that they are largely ineffective for the vast majority of people. Treatment programs that are based off of AA's 12-Step program therefore are not necessarily providing effective treatment, but are still charging exorbitant prices, especially considering that AA is a fellowship that is free to participants outside of treatment programs.[2]
Studies conducted on patients with Alcohol Use Disorders (AUD) have found that pharmaceutical interventions, when used with psychosocial co-interventions, resulted in better alcohol consumption outcomes. This demonstrates that looking into adding in medication to treatment programs could be advantageous for opioid users.[3]
Other treatment programs include recovery coaching, recovery housing, recovery management, peer-led recovery community centers, and recovery-based eduaction.
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is available in accredited and certified private and public clinics across the United States. The Division of Pharmacologic Therapies (DPT) of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration is responsible for overseeing the certification of opioid treatment programs (OTPs). Medication-assisted OTPs include using buprenorphine, methadone, and naltrexone.[4] A combination of medication, counseling and behavioral therapy is regarded as the most effective in treating opioid dependency. According to an article in the New England Journal of Medicine MATs are both cost-effective and safe, and result in the reduction of the risk to overdose.[5]

Using County Jails as Treatment Centers

Instead of focusing on punishing or just locking up people with substance abuse issues, the Kenton County Detention Center focuses on turning a time of incarceration into a time for much-needed treatment. Leaders in Kenton County believe that jail be the best place to initiate addict recovery.
