Concerted Care Group Brooklyn LLC

They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Brooklyn, 2 offer a bed.

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Brooklyn, a few streets away.

Nobody stays overnight. Outpatient means you keep sleeping at home and come in for sessions, and the closest residential option is under a mile away in Brooklyn.

They do video appointments, which matters if Brooklyn is a drive for you.

They take court referrals, which usually means they are used to the reporting side of it. Courts in Brooklyn send people to places set up for it rather than to any opening.

In network and out of network are the two phrases that decide most of this. Coverage for detox is normally a separate question from coverage for the treatment that follows it. If a plan declines a level of care there is an appeal, and appeals are used more often than people expect.

Treatment records for substance use are held under a federal rule that is stricter than the one covering ordinary medical records. Who you authorize, and what they are authorized to hear, are two separate choices on the same form. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.

A return to use is treated as information: something in the plan was not holding. A recurrence is treated as part of the condition rather than as a failure of character. Ask what they do differently for somebody who has been through a program before.
