Is medication assisted treatment available at Asian American Drug Abuse Program?

Is there anything in Los Angeles besides paid treatment?

Is there a Spanish speaking counselor at Asian American Drug Abuse Program?
They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Los Angeles are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.
Do they treat anxiety alongside addiction?
The two feed each other, which is why handling them separately tends to work badly. A diagnosis made while someone is still using can be wrong, so assessment often waits until after detox. Bring the existing diagnosis and the name of whoever currently treats it.
Is treatment covered by insurance?
Addiction treatment sits alongside other medical benefits on most plans, so some coverage is the normal case. Coverage for detox is normally a separate question from coverage for the treatment that follows it. Ask for the benefits check in writing, including what it does not reach.
How soon could someone start?
A wait quoted on the phone is an estimate of a queue that moves, rather than a date you can plan around. Many programs start the admissions paperwork during the wait, so the day a bed opens is not spent on forms. If the wait is long, ask what the next level down could start on.
