Tellurian Behavioral Health

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

They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Madison, about a mile away.

They offer a program for people who are pregnant or just postpartum, which not every center around Madison does.

They do video appointments, which matters if Madison is a drive for you.

They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Madison.

They treat adults up to and past 65. Ask whether the group sessions are mixed age, because in Madison that often means one room rather than two.

Nearly every plan includes something for this, and the detail is in which level of care it will approve. An in network center costs less, and network lists go out of date, so it is worth verifying rather than trusting the list. Have your member id with you when you call, because nothing can be checked without it.

Addiction treatment records carry a stronger legal protection than the rest of a medical file. A mandated program reports attendance to whoever ordered it, and that is set by the order rather than by the center. Where a court or a license is involved, ask exactly what gets reported and to whom.
