When you are looking for substance-use treatment, understanding both the care options and your health-plan benefits can make the next step clearer. Our New Brunswick team can discuss intensive outpatient and outpatient care with adults who have UnitedHealthcare Medicaid benefit questions.
Care at New Brunswick Counseling Center takes place at 152 Livingston Ave, New Brunswick, NJ 08901. Our outpatient programs allow clients to continue living outside the treatment center while participating in care.
IOP and outpatient treatment
Our substance-use intensive outpatient program provides a more structured outpatient level of care. Standard outpatient care is a lower-intensity option. An assessment helps the clinical team recommend the level suited to the person’s current needs.
You can ask what each option involves, how treatment recommendations are made and what information would help with an assessment. You do not have to work out the appropriate level on your own before calling.
Use the plan information relevant to this visit
Share the member card for the coverage you would use for treatment. If you have more than one plan, let the team know so the benefits conversation starts with the relevant information.
Our team can help review your UnitedHealthcare Medicaid plan for the outpatient service being considered, including program participation, authorization requirements and any member costs.
