Questions people ask about Meridian Behavioral Healthcare Inc

What treatment does Meridian Behavioral Healthcare Inc offer?

They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Chiefland is set up for.

Is detox part of what Meridian Behavioral Healthcare Inc offers?

No. There is no detox listed near Chiefland at all, so the first call is worth making to ask who they work with for it.

Can Meridian Behavioral Healthcare Inc handle a court referral?

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

Is there an interpreter at Meridian Behavioral Healthcare Inc?

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Chiefland are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

Does Meridian Behavioral Healthcare Inc prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which means the medication side is handled here rather than referred out to somewhere else in Chiefland.

Will they take my medication away?

They normally continue, and a prescriber reviews the whole list rather than applying a rule to it. Some abstinence based programs are uncomfortable with prescribed medication, and that is a genuine difference between centers. Keep whoever prescribes for you informed rather than assuming a handover happens by itself.

Should I live at the center?

Residential care is a bed and a program. Outpatient care is a schedule of appointments. People commonly start higher and step down, rather than choosing one level and staying there. If you are told you need the most expensive option before anyone has asked you anything, get a second opinion.

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 the center to put the benefits check in writing before an admission date is set.
