Questions people ask about Ascensa Health

What kind of care does Ascensa Health provide?

They provide outpatient, telemedicine, inpatient residential and detox, which is the whole of what this address in Atlanta is set up for.

What does Ascensa Health detox from?

They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines and opioids, so the first stage and the treatment after it can happen in one place rather than across two trips to Atlanta.

What if there is depression or anxiety alongside this?

They treat both. Confirm it for the specific diagnosis rather than in general, because mental health treatment and recovery support services covers a lot of ground and Atlanta may have a narrower service than a bigger city would.

Are there other options nearby?

It is the only one in that radius. Telemedicine is worth asking about where the nearest alternative is far.

Do I have to come in person to Ascensa Health?

They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Atlanta often still has to be in person.

Is treatment expensive?

There is no single figure, and anyone who quotes one before asking you anything is guessing. A quote for 30 days and a quote for 90 days get presented the same way, so the length is the first thing to check. Ask for the all in figure, then ask which parts of it are estimates.

Will a court accept this program?

Most programs will say plainly whether they sit on a court's approved list. A deadline inside an order is easier to meet when the program hears about it on the first call. Check whether the program is approved for your specific order before enrolling in it.

Can I bring my own medication?

Most medication carries on. Anything that interacts with treatment gets looked at by a prescriber first. Some abstinence based programs are uncomfortable with prescribed medication, and that is a genuine difference between centers. Ask who to speak to if something needs changing mid program.
