If the assessment agency recommends Detox as the first step of your Treatment Plan, have the agency contact your regular Primary Doctor to arrange a possible DIRECT ADMISSION to the hospital. If you do not have a regular doctor, go to the Emergency Department with your written Treatment Plan during the daytime hours for the quickest care. A written Treatment Plan increases the likelihood of admission, but it DOES NOT GUARANTEE ADMISSION. The final decision rests with the Emergency Physician and is based on medical necessity.
