What MAT means
Medication for addiction treatment (MAT) uses FDA-approved medicines with counseling: buprenorphine, methadone or naltrexone for opioid use disorder, and naltrexone, acamprosate or disulfiram for alcohol use disorder. See IOP vs PHP vs outpatient care.
A sliding fee is set by your income and other factors. Ask the program what you'd pay a session or a day, and what proof of income to bring.
