Questions people ask about UnityPoint Health
What kind of care does UnityPoint Health provide?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Fort Dodge has 5 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at UnityPoint Health?
No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Fort Dodge, under a mile away.
Does UnityPoint Health offer medication for addiction?
No. If medication matters to you ask directly, because it is the hardest thing to change later and not every place around Fort Dodge offers it.
Does UnityPoint Health treat teenagers?
Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Fort Dodge has 5 other centers, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.
Do I have to come in person to UnityPoint Health?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 5 centers near Fort Dodge differ on it.
Does UnityPoint Health have beds?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Fort Dodge.
What if I cannot pay for treatment?
It ranges from nothing at all, in a state funded program, to figures that need a payment plan. Many centers will spread a balance over months, and those terms are negotiable more often than people assume. Call (844) 822-5800 and someone can go through what your coverage is likely to reach.
Is 30 days enough?
Days for a detox, weeks for a residential stay, months for outpatient care. The 28 day figure comes from what insurers once reimbursed rather than from anything about how recovery works. Find out whether the program can be extended before you are in it.
