Questions people ask about HealthPort
What levels of care does HealthPort offer?
They provide outpatient, detox and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Newark is set up for.
Can you detox at HealthPort?
They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines and opioids. Coming off alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous, which is why it matters that this is one of 1 places near Newark that do it.
Is there a residential program at HealthPort?
They are outpatient, and nobody inside 14 miles of Newark offers a bed, which is worth knowing if being away from home is the point of it.
Is there a program at HealthPort for people like me?
They offer a program for clients with a mental health diagnosis as well, which not every center around Newark does.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They offer telemedicine, so some of this can be done by video rather than traveling into Newark.
What will I actually pay?
The spread is enormous, from state funded care at no cost to private residential rates that need financing. Many centers will spread a balance over months, and those terms are negotiable more often than people assume. Ask what someone on your plan usually ends up paying, which is a different question from the list price.
How long will I be away?
Lengths vary by level of care more than by center, and outpatient is the long one. Longer time in treatment is associated with better outcomes, which is why the step down to outpatient care matters. Ask how many hours a week an outpatient program actually takes, because it varies widely.
How long is the wait?
It depends on the level of care and on the week, which is why only a call can answer it. Widening the search past your own county usually shortens the wait, because availability is uneven between neighboring areas. If the wait is long, ask what the next level down could start on.
