Questions people ask about HMH JFK University Medical Center

Is HMH JFK University Medical Center inpatient or outpatient?

They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Edison is set up for.

Is detox part of what HMH JFK University Medical Center offers?

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Edison offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

Is there an interpreter at HMH JFK University Medical Center?

They treat people in Sign language as well as English, which not every place around Edison does.

Does HMH JFK University Medical Center prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Edison, not all of them do.

Is there a residential program at HMH JFK University Medical Center?

Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Edison has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.

Does support carry on after discharge?

It is the stretch after discharge, and it tends to decide whether the program holds. A discharge plan should name the appointments, who prescribes, and what to do on a bad night. Book the first appointment after discharge while you are still in the program, not afterward.

Is 30 days enough?

It depends which level of care you are asking about, because they run on different clocks. A plan may approve days in batches and review before extending, so the length can change while you are in it. Ask how many hours a week an outpatient program actually takes, because it varies widely.

Does insurance pay for addiction treatment?

Medicaid and most commercial plans include treatment, with different rules about what they approve. Network status changes without notice, so a center on last year's list is not necessarily on this year's. Ask whether the quote covers the detox as well, because frequently it does not.
