Questions people ask about LAAM and Methadone Program (LAMP) - VA North Texas Healthcare System

Is LAAM and Methadone Program (LAMP) - VA North Texas Healthcare System residential or day treatment?

They provide outpatient. The nearest alternative is in Burleson, 5.9 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.

Does LAAM and Methadone Program (LAMP) - VA North Texas Healthcare System offer a detox?

They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Fort Worth is the nearest place that does it, 5.2 miles away.

Is there anything in Fort Worth besides paid treatment?

Fort Worth has 405 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

What ages does LAAM and Methadone Program (LAMP) - VA North Texas Healthcare System treat?

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Anyone outside that range is worth a call rather than an assumption, and Fort Worth has 8 other centers to try.

Is medication assisted treatment available at LAAM and Methadone Program (LAMP) - VA North Texas Healthcare System?

They prescribe 3 medications: methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Fort Worth.

Is LAAM and Methadone Program (LAMP) - VA North Texas Healthcare System an option for a veteran?

They offer a program for veterans. Whether they bill the VA is a separate question, and the answer differs between places even inside Fort Worth.

How do I choose between two centers?

The useful questions are the ones answerable with a fact: who prescribes, what the schedule is, what follows it. Accreditation by a recognized body is a floor rather than a recommendation, and the absence of it is worth asking about. Ask what happens if somebody wants to leave partway through, because the answer says a lot about how a place is run.

What happens to the medication I already take?

The list comes with you and gets reviewed. Nothing on it should change on a policy rather than a prescription. Medication bought over the counter counts on the list, and leaving it off causes problems later. Bring the containers with the labels on, not a bag of loose pills.
