Questions people ask about Lawndale Christian Health Center
Which levels of care does Lawndale Christian Health Center have?
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 Cicero is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Is detox part of what Lawndale Christian Health Center offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Chicago, under a mile away.
Can I do this by video instead?
They do video appointments, which matters if Chicago is a drive for you.
What is there in Chicago that costs nothing?
Alongside this, Chicago has 83 NA meetings and 876 free AA meetings.
Is treatment available in Spanish at Lawndale Christian Health Center?
They work in Spanish as well as English. Ask whether the group sessions in Chicago are in Spanish too, or only the one to one ones.
Is medication assisted treatment available at Lawndale Christian Health Center?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Chicago, not all of them do.
What if I have no insurance?
Coverage is common, and partial coverage is more common than the full amount. An employer that funds its own plan follows different rules from a state regulated one, and that changes who hears an appeal. If a plan declines a level of care there is an appeal, and appeals are used more often than people expect.
Does a relapse mean it failed?
It happens to most people at some point, and it says nothing about whether this will work. A recurrence after a long gap and one in the first week are different problems with different answers. Ask whether the program takes somebody back directly or wants a fresh assessment first.
