Questions people ask about NYC HHC Metropolitan Hospital Center

What treatment does NYC HHC Metropolitan Hospital Center offer?

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and New York has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

Does NYC HHC Metropolitan Hospital Center offer a detox?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in New York, under a mile away.

Can NYC HHC Metropolitan Hospital Center handle a court referral?

They take mandated treatment. What paperwork the court wants back is between you and whoever ordered it, and New York has 8 other centers if the dates do not work.

Does NYC HHC Metropolitan Hospital Center treat people in Spanish?

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

Is medication assisted treatment available at NYC HHC Metropolitan Hospital Center?

They prescribe 2 medications: methadone and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to New York.

How many other options are in this area?

There are 8 more within a short drive of New York, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

Is treatment expensive?

The number follows the level of care, and that is not something a listing page can judge for you. Many centers will spread a balance over months, and those terms are negotiable more often than people assume. Ask for the figure per week as well as per program, because extensions are billed by the week.

Who has access to my records?

Legally it is private, including from family, and including from an employer who is paying. Taking leave from work creates dates rather than a diagnosis, which is a meaningful difference. Read what you sign at intake, because the release is in that stack.
