Questions people ask about Gateway Erie

Is Gateway Erie inpatient or outpatient?

They provide inpatient residential and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Erie is set up for.

Can you detox at Gateway Erie?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Erie, 2.5 miles away.

What special programs does Gateway Erie offer?

They offer a program for adult men, which is worth confirming on the call rather than assuming. A named program and one with a place free this month are different things, and Erie has 8 other centers to ask.

What is there in Erie that costs nothing?

Erie has 26 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

Does Gateway Erie treat people in Spanish?

They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Erie are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.

Can I choose my own program for a court order?

The order decides what gets reported. The clinical plan is decided the way it is for anybody else. Whether a program satisfies a particular order is a question for the court or the officer rather than for the center alone. Confirm the program is on the approved list before the first session rather than after it.

Does insurance pay for addiction treatment?

Usually some of it. The share depends on your plan rather than on the center. A plan tends to approve a level of care in blocks of days, then review whether to carry on. Ask what your out of pocket maximum means for a stay of this length.

Is medication just swapping one drug for another?

The phrase covers three medications, each working differently, each needing a prescriber. The objection that it swaps one drug for another misses the mechanism: a stable prescribed dose does not produce a high and does not escalate. A prescriber is the only person who can judge which of the three fits your situation.
