What is the Intensive Outpatient (IOP) level of care?
IOP stands for Intensive Outpatient. This type of care is used most in the behavioral health industry for the treatment of substance abuse issues. It is also utilized for patients with mental health disorders.
Most state licensing departments classify IOP as an outpatient service, requiring an outpatient license. IOP can be 3, 4, or 5 days per week and normally consists of at least 3 hours per day of programming.
IOP is often used as a step down from a Partial Hospitalization program. Depending on the program, they can be encouraged to look for employment in this level of care, but that is not a requirement. In early recovery, it is important to maintain structure for the client, which can be achieved with IOP.
