Not sure which level of care is right?
Answer 7 short questions to find the treatment level that fits your situation.
A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) typically meets 5–6 days per week for 5–6 hours per day. An Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is less intensive — usually 3 days per week for 3 hours per session. PHP is designed for people stepping down from residential care; IOP is appropriate for those with moderate needs and a stable home environment.
Most IOP programs in Georgia provide 9–20 hours of structured clinical programming per week. ASAM guidelines define IOP as a minimum of 9 hours weekly. Many programs offer morning, afternoon, and evening tracks to accommodate work and family schedules.
Most major insurance plans — including Medicaid, Medicare, and commercial insurers — are required by the Mental Health Parity Act to cover PHP and IOP. Contact the program directly to verify your specific benefits, co-pays, and any prior authorization requirements.
