Questions people ask about Community Medical Services
What programs does Community Medical Services offer?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Minneapolis is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Does Community Medical Services offer a detox?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Minneapolis, 3.2 miles away.
Does Community Medical Services treat people who are pregnant?
They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Saint Paul may not have a second place set up for it.
Can any of this be done remotely?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Saint Paul differ on it.
Is Community Medical Services an option for someone over 65?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Saint Paul.
What stops it going wrong again afterward?
It normally means continuing outpatient sessions, a prescriber if medication is involved, and free meetings. Sober living is housing with rules rather than treatment, and the rules vary more than the brochures suggest. Book the first follow up appointment before leaving rather than after.
Is treatment expensive?
What you pay depends more on insurance than on which center you choose. Medicaid covers addiction treatment in every state, though which centers accept it varies from county to county. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can go through what your coverage is likely to reach.
Will a program make me come off my medication?
They normally continue, and a prescriber at the program reviews the whole list on arrival. Pill organizers are often refused at the door, because medication has to arrive labeled. Ask what their position is on prescribed medication generally, because positions differ.
