Chef-Prepared Meals DailyAlcohol rehab at GEVS Recovery starts here. 30, 60, and 90 days are the standard residential lengths. 30 days is the floor — most clients benefit from 60 or more. Research shows 60-day treatment runs roughly 50 percent more effective than 30-day, and 90-day produces the best long-term outcomes. The difference is not just longer; the clinical work is different at each interval. 30 days stabilizes. 60 days rebuilds skills. 90 days rewires patterns. Verify your insurance and we will give a case-specific length recommendation on the same call.
Medication-assisted treatment for AUD includes three FDA-approved options. Naltrexone, oral or as the monthly Vivitrol injection, blocks the reinforcing reward and reduces cravings. Acamprosate (Campral) stabilizes brain chemistry post-acute and reduces post-acute withdrawal. Disulfiram (Antabuse) makes drinking physically aversive — for highly motivated clients. Most residential alcohol rehab programs underuse these meds. We do not. See alcohol detox for the medical clearance that often precedes MAT initiation.
Alcohol detox is the 5 to 7 day medical clearance — managing the withdrawal window safely with monitoring and benzodiazepine taper when needed. Alcohol rehab is the 30 to 90 day residential program after, where the work shifts to behavioral and emotional. Detox without rehab is a high-relapse pattern. GEVS does both, on one campus, with the same medical team carrying through. See medically supervised alcohol detox for the clearance specifics.
Most major commercial insurers cover residential alcohol rehab under SUD parity laws — Anthem Blue Cross of California, Aetna, Cigna, Carelon Behavioral Health, Magellan Health, Health Net of California, UnitedHealthcare among them. Length of stay determines cost; 30-day baseline pricing scales up for 60 and 90-day programs. Self-pay options and out-of-network coverage often work when in-network is thin. Same-day verification at GEVS, no commitment to a specific path before the cost picture is clear. Verify your insurance in under five minutes.
