Questions people ask about Human Empowerment Institute

What programs does Human Empowerment Institute offer?

They provide outpatient. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Newark is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Can you detox at Human Empowerment Institute?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in East Orange, 2.0 miles away.

Does Human Empowerment Institute prescribe medication for opioid use?

They do not prescribe medication. For opioid use that is worth knowing before you choose, because medication changes what the first weeks look like, and Irvington has 8 other centers.

What is there in Irvington that costs nothing?

Irvington has 49 NA meetings too, and most people end up using both.

Can you stay overnight at Human Empowerment Institute?

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Irvington.

What else is near Human Empowerment Institute?

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them under a mile away in Irvington.

Is treatment expensive?

List price and what you actually pay are different numbers, and only the second one matters to you. The cheapest program and the one with the shortest wait are rarely the same program, and that is the real tradeoff. Ask what someone on your plan usually ends up paying, which is a different question from the list price.

What if I have no insurance?

Most plans cover addiction treatment to some degree, because federal parity rules put it alongside other medical care. An employer that funds its own plan follows different rules from a state regulated one, and that changes who hears an appeal. Ask whether the center bills your plan directly or expects you to claim it back afterward.
