About Ideal Option – Anchorage
Ideal Option in Anchorage, Alaska is an accredited outpatient facility specializing in medication assisted treatment for opioid addiction and substance use disorder. Support is available for adults aged 18 and older. They accept commercial insurance, Medicare, Medicaid and TRICARE. Payment plans are also available.
This center’s offerings include an outpatient program, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and relapse prevention services. Most new clients can begin treatment here within one to three days which is great news for those ready to begin their recovery journey as soon as possible. This ease of access makes it incredibly easy for clients to hit the ground running.
MAT is a pivotal element of their treatment services and features FDA-approved medications including buprenorphine (Suboxone, Subutex, Sublocade, Brixadi), naltrexone, disulfiram, acamprosate, gabapentin and bupropion. Clients may also access support for transitioning away from methadone to buprenorphine here, too. However, the center doesn’t prescribe methadone.
They also provide supporting treatment services like therapy, counseling, and peer support groups. Telemedicine and a virtual clinic are also available for anyone unable to make regular in-person appointments — another way in which their services are super accessible.
Feedback from former clients is mixed, though largely positive. Many praise staff for their kindness, politeness, and quality care. Some even shout out specific staff members by name which is a great sign. People also seem to appreciate the smoothness and ease with which services are provided here.
Clients describe arriving for appointments and just having to sign in at a kiosk or using an electronic pad, and receiving convenient texts scheduling further appointments, following up, and checking in on how the last appointment went. They even send text reminders for when prescriptions will be sent. I think this ease of service is not to be underestimated as it appears to positively affect clients’ outlook on their treatment here. One of the few complaints is the difficulty finding parking nearby.
