Questions people ask about Prime Healthcare Services
Which levels of care does Prime Healthcare Services have?
They provide outpatient, which is the whole of what this address in Newark is set up for.
Is detox part of what Prime Healthcare Services offers?
They do not detox, and nothing inside 14 miles of Newark does either. Ask them where they send people, because a place without one usually has somewhere it refers to.
Are there free support meetings in Newark?
Alongside this, Newark has 25 NA meetings and 27 free AA meetings.
Does Prime Healthcare Services treat older adults?
They take older adults as well as young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64. Ask who reviews existing prescriptions, because that is the part that matters most for an older adult in Newark.
Can Prime Healthcare Services handle a court referral?
They take court referrals, which usually means they are used to the reporting side of it. Courts in Newark send people to places set up for it rather than to any opening.
Does Prime Healthcare Services prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?
They prescribe 1 medication: naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Newark.
What does the first conversation cover?
It is a set of questions about what is being used, your health, and what you are covered for. If you have been through treatment before, what did not work is useful information rather than a mark against you. Ask what they would recommend if money were not a factor, and then what they recommend given that it is.
What if I have no insurance?
Plans sold on the marketplace have to include addiction treatment, so the open question is which level of care yours will approve. Network status changes without notice, so a center on last year's list is not necessarily on this year's. Get any authorization in writing, with the number of days it covers.
