Supervision.
There is outpt rehab, suboxone rapid taper, supervised cold turkey with medications for symptoms, rather a lot.
Furthermore, there is an entire issue of how one is oriented to the medical system. Coming and getting a fix is not an orientation that is going to serve well long term. and an organized pattern of regular doctor visits to get supervised help is going to work better in the long run.
