Questions people ask about New Connections - Broadlawns Medical Center
Which levels of care does New Connections - Broadlawns Medical Center have?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Des Moines has 8 other centers within 14 miles.
Is detox part of what New Connections - Broadlawns Medical Center offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Des Moines, under a mile away.
Is there an interpreter at New Connections - Broadlawns Medical Center?
They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Des Moines are in it too, or only the one to one ones.
Can I do this by video instead?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Des Moines often still has to be in person.
How many other options are in this area?
The nearest other center is under a mile away, in Des Moines, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.
What if I cannot pay for treatment?
List price and what you actually pay are different numbers, and only the second one matters to you. A quote for 30 days and a quote for 90 days get presented the same way, so the length is the first thing to check. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can go through what your coverage is likely to reach.
Can I get in today?
Sometimes, and it depends far more on the level of care than on the center. Where the wait is long, a detox can sometimes happen first and the treatment bed after it. Say clearly how urgent it is, including any medical risk, because that changes the queue.
Will I lose my job?
Many people are treated without leaving work at all, because outpatient programs are available evenings and early mornings. A medical leave of absence from a college is normally reversible, and usually a better record than a failed semester. Ask whether the program can start on a date that fits a leave request.
