Center of Excellence in - Co Occurring Medicine

They provide outpatient, telemedicine and detox. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Portland is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

They handle detox for opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine and methamphetamines. Ask how many days theirs lasts, because that varies more between places than people expect and Beaverton has 8 other centers to compare.

Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Beaverton has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.

There are 8 more within a short drive of Beaverton, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

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

List price and what you actually pay are different numbers, and only the second one matters to you. Public and nonprofit programs often charge on a sliding scale, and some places are free to people who qualify on income. Ask for the itemized version rather than a single total, because the surprises sit in the line items.

Coverage is common, and partial coverage is more common than the full amount. A plan tends to approve a level of care in blocks of days, then review whether to carry on. If a plan declines a level of care there is an appeal, and appeals are used more often than people expect.

Treatment is not usually a single event, and the first attempt teaching you something is part of how it works. Tolerance drops during any period of abstinence, which makes the first use after treatment the most dangerous one. Ask about naloxone if opioids are involved, because tolerance will have dropped.
