Questions people ask about Genesis Counseling Services Inc
What treatment does Genesis Counseling Services Inc offer?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Framingham has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Does Genesis Counseling Services Inc offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Framingham offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Does Genesis Counseling Services Inc treat people in Spanish?
They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Framingham are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.
Are there alternatives to Genesis Counseling Services Inc?
8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Framingham.
Does Genesis Counseling Services Inc prescribe medication for opioid use?
They do not prescribe it. Ask them who they refer to, because somewhere among the 8 centers near Framingham will.
Do I need a referral for insurance to pay?
Plans sold on the marketplace have to include addiction treatment, so the open question is which level of care yours will approve. A benefits check is a specific thing a billing office does, and it is more reliable than a figure quoted on the phone. Ask what your out of pocket maximum means for a stay of this length.
Is a second attempt treated differently?
Coming back after a return to use is one of the most ordinary calls an intake line takes. A recurrence after a long gap and one in the first week are different problems with different answers. Say what happened last time, because it is the most useful thing you can tell an intake worker.
What should I bring to treatment?
Documents, prescriptions, clothing, and the phone numbers you would struggle to replace. A written packing list exists at almost every residential program, and asking for it saves an argument at intake. Ask what they hold at the door and when you get it back.
