Questions About Detox at Revive
Straight answers about medical detox, insurance and what a stay is like. If yours isn't here, call. Someone answers around the clock.

About Medical Detox
What is medical detox?
When someone drinks or uses regularly, the body adapts to the substance being there. Stop, and it has to readjust. That readjustment is withdrawal. Medical detox means going through it under clinical supervision: assessed on arrival, monitored around the clock, and given medication when it's appropriate to ease symptoms and reduce risk. More about medical detox.
Is withdrawal dangerous?
It can be. Alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal can cause seizures and, in severe cases, delirium. Withdrawal from other substances may be deeply unpleasant or medically dangerous. If you've developed physical dependence on alcohol or benzodiazepines, stopping abruptly should be managed with medical supervision.
How long does detox take?
It depends on the substance, how much and how long it was used, and your general health. That's why the first thing we do is an assessment, not a protocol. The medical team sets your plan from that assessment and adjusts it as symptoms change.
What substances does Revive treat?
Alcohol, opioids (fentanyl and heroin, or prescription painkillers), benzodiazepines such as Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan and Valium, kratom and 7-OH products, prescription medications including stimulants and sleep medications, cocaine, methamphetamine and cannabis. Many people arrive using more than one substance. That's common, and it makes a careful assessment especially important.
Will I be given medication?
When it's appropriate. Medication is prescribed by our medical team and adjusted as symptoms change, to make withdrawal safer and more bearable. For opioid and some kratom withdrawal, that can include a medication-assisted treatment approach. What's prescribed, and for how long, is a medical decision made with you.
Who looks after me during detox?
Our Medical Director supervises care. A nurse practitioner, licensed nurses and clinical staff are involved throughout your stay, alongside trained recovery support staff. With six beds, the team knows each person by name and notices changes early.
Do you treat anxiety, depression or trauma too?
Yes. If you're also living with depression, anxiety, trauma or another mental health condition, our dual diagnosis approach means both are treated together, rather than one being put on hold.
Insurance and Cost
What insurance does Revive accept?
Revive is in network with Aetna, Optum and UnitedHealthcare, UBH and Health Net for eligible plans. We also work with most PPO plans. Coverage depends on your individual plan. Our admissions team can help verify your benefits.
How do I check my coverage?
Call (844) 467-3848 or send the verify-insurance form. The check is free, and you don't need to understand your policy first. Bring the card if you have it, or just your name and date of birth. Our team does the rest.
What if my plan won't cover care at Revive?
We'll tell you plainly. And we'll help you look for somewhere it will.
My card says Optum or United Behavioral Health. Is that the same thing?
They're connected. Optum and United Behavioral Health handle mental health and substance use benefits for many UnitedHealthcare plans. If any of those names is on your card, call us and we'll sort out which applies.
Getting Started
How does admission work?
It starts with a call to (844) 467-3848. We check your insurance at no cost, then talk through admission: what to bring, when you can arrive, and who will meet you at the door. From there, you arrive for a physician-supervised stay in a six-bed home in Beverly Grove.
Can I call about someone else?
Yes. Parents, partners, siblings and friends make many of our first calls. We'll tell you what we need and what the next step looks like for the person you're worried about.
Is the call confidential?
Yes. Someone answers around the clock, and the call is confidential. Revive's Notice of Privacy Practices explains how health information is protected.
What should I bring?
Bring every medication you take, in its original bottle. The label tells the medical team a lot. Admissions will go over the rest when you call.
Your Stay
What is the house like?
Revive is a residence on a quiet street in Beverly Grove, not a clinical building with a sign out front. There's a garden, a living room, and meals that suit a body in withdrawal. Nothing is required of you until you're ready. See photos of the house.
Why only six beds?
Most detox facilities are built for volume. Revive was built for the opposite. Six beds means the medical team knows each person by name, notices changes early, and can adjust care the same day rather than the next shift. It also means privacy.
What is The Rhythm of Recovery™?
It's Revive's mind-body program: meditation and breathwork, sound and music, plus PEMF and red light therapy, practiced alongside physician-supervised detox, never instead of it. You're welcome in when you feel able. Read about the program.
After Detox
What happens after detox?
Detox is the first step, not the whole plan. Planning for what comes next starts during your stay. Before you leave, there's a plan for continued care, whether that's residential care with us or a program closer to home.
Can I stay on for residential treatment?
Yes. Detox and residential treatment happen in the same house, with the same team. If you continue with us, there's no transfer, no new intake and no starting over with strangers.
Do you offer outpatient or sober living?
Revive doesn't currently operate outpatient or sober living programs. Our team helps you find and coordinate the ones that fit your needs, including partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), sober living and ongoing therapy.
