Legacy Healing Center- Medically Assisted Treatment

Medication Assisted Treatment at Legacy Healing Center

The opioid epidemic our nation is experiencing has resulted in many individuals needing help to treat their addiction.  Because of this, researchers and behavioral health professionals are developing and identifying the most effective treatments. Studies consistently show that medication assisted treatment, or MAT for short, has the highest success rates among all available addiction treatment programs. MAT has been controversial in the past, as there is a stigma around using one medication to treat the addiction of another. However, this is simply untrue.

The MAT program at Legacy Healing Center, called Medically Managed Intelligence, uses a multi-modal therapeutic approach to give each and every one of our patients the highest quality of life possible in recovery. Our MAT program is part of a comprehensive treatment plan. Each patient receives customized treatment based on their initial assessment. Depending on the individual and their unique needs, the MAT program may or may not be used, but is always available should the person need it.

The Medically Managed Intelligence program at Legacy Healing Center is one of the most effective ways in helping our patients achieve long-term success against addiction.
