Drug & Alcohol Detox Centers Near Brooklyn, NY

The 15 Brooklyn centers in this directory span several facility types. Six operate as hospital-based programs, which typically have on-site medical staff available around the clock. Four are outpatient clinics, three are residential facilities, and two offer a combination of residential and outpatient care.

In terms of levels of care, 12 centers offer an outpatient program, 9 provide medical detox, 6 offer an intensive outpatient program (IOP), and 4 include residential treatment. Many centers provide more than one level of care, which can matter if your needs change during treatment.

Nine of the 15 listed Brooklyn centers offer medical detox. These programs provide supervised withdrawal management, meaning a medical team monitors patients as substances clear their system and can intervene if withdrawal becomes complicated. This level of care is often recommended for alcohol, opioid, or benzodiazepine dependence, where withdrawal can carry health risks.

Hospital-based centers such as Brooklyn Hospital Center, Kings County Hospital Center, Woodhull Medical Center, and Coney Island Hospital are among those offering medically supervised withdrawal management. Residential programs like Genesis Detox of Brooklyn and Kingsboro Addiction Treatment Center also provide inpatient detox. Individual listings include more detail on each center's specific approach.

Private insurance is accepted at 12, Medicare at 11, and TRICARE at 4. Self-pay or cash is an option at 13 centers, and 6 offer sliding-scale fees tied to income.

Insurance carrier details are confirmed for 7 of the 15 centers. Carriers noted in those listings include Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Anthem, Carelon, and TRICARE, among others. Because coverage depends on your specific plan and the center, it is worth calling to confirm what your insurance will cover before committing to a program.
