Questions people ask about Saint Peters Hospital City of Albany
What programs does Saint Peters Hospital City of Albany offer?
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 Guilderland is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Is detox part of what Saint Peters Hospital City of Albany offers?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Schenectady, 2.9 miles away.
Is there anything in Schenectady besides paid treatment?
Schenectady has 41 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
Who are the programs at Saint Peters Hospital City of Albany built for?
One of their programs is built for people dealing with past trauma, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 5 named here.
Which medications does Saint Peters Hospital City of Albany prescribe?
They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is the part of treatment that is prescribed rather than attended. Of the 8 centers near Schenectady, not all of them do.
Does Saint Peters Hospital City of Albany treat older adults?
They treat older adults, along with young adults from 18 to 25 and adults from 26 to 64, which is a wider range than most places listed near Schenectady cover.
How long does treatment take?
The usual shapes are a few days of detox, a month or so of residential care, then outpatient care for longer. A plan may approve days in batches and review before extending, so the length can change while you are in it. Call (844) 822-5800 to talk through which level of care fits what you are dealing with.
Does insurance pay for addiction treatment?
The useful question is not whether a plan covers treatment but which level of care it will approve. Approval can arrive in stages, with the detox cleared while the level of care after it is still under review. Ask whether the center bills your plan directly or expects you to claim it back afterward.
