About Cincinnati VA Medical Center
The Substance Dependence Program treats the full range of chemical dependency, from alcohol and opioids to benzodiazepines, methamphetamine, and cocaine. Clients receive inpatient or outpatient detox protocols based on clinical need. Clinicians prescribe buprenorphine, methadone, and naltrexone for opioid use disorder and pair these medications with relapse prevention counseling and community reinforcement. There is also dual diagnosis care for veterans whose substance use intersects with mental health issues.
Beyond clinical treatment, the program connects veterans to case management, housing services, legal advocacy, and vocational support. recognizing that lasting recovery often also depends on post-treatment stability.
What Makes the Cincinnati VA’s Substance Dependence Program Different?
This program treats addiction as one part of a veteran’s broader health picture rather than an isolated condition. The same medical record, the same campus, and often the same care team handle a client’s substance use, PTSD, primary care, and other health concerns. And because eligible veterans pay nothing, cost isn’t a barrier at the exact moment someone decides whether to ask for help.
