Carle Addiction Recovery Center

They provide outpatient, telemedicine and detox. The nearest alternative is in Urbana, 3.8 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.

They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Champaign may not have a second place set up for it.

Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Champaign differ on it.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Champaign.

Alongside this, Champaign has 2 NA meetings and 56 free AA meetings.

Both get treated together at the programs that do this properly, by one team. An integrated program handles both with one team, which removes the handover where people get lost. Ask what happens to your current psychiatric medication during the program.

One of them takes the decision to use out of your hands for a while. The other leaves it with you. People commonly start higher and step down, rather than choosing one level and staying there. Describe the house you would be going back to, because that is the detail that decides it.

It depends on the plan, the level of care, and whether the center is in network. A plan can approve the detox and then decline the residential stay that was meant to follow it. If a plan declines a level of care there is an appeal, and appeals are used more often than people expect.
