Frequently Asked Questions

Comprehensive Answers for Your Guidance

  • What is Suboxone and how does it work?

    Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) is an FDA-approved medication that helps reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms from opioid dependence. It works by partially activating the same receptors in your brain that opioids affect, but in a much safer and controlled way. This allows you to focus on your recovery without the constant discomfort of withdrawal or intense cravings.

  • How long will I need to be on medication?

    Treatment length varies for each person. Some patients benefit from a few months of medication support, while others do better with longer-term maintenance. We'll work with you to create a treatment plan that fits your needs and adjusts as you progress in recovery.

  • Can I work and drive while taking Suboxone?

    Yes. Once you're stabilized on your medication, most patients can work, drive, and carry out their normal daily activities safely. We'll discuss any precautions during your appointments.

  • What should I bring to my first appointment?

    Please bring a photo ID and your insurance card. If you've completed the intake paperwork online ahead of time, your first visit will take approximately one hour.

  • Does insurance cover treatment?

    We accept all Kentucky Medicaid plans, some Ohio Medicaid plans, most major commercial insurance, and Medicare. If you have commercial insurance, we can provide information about your financial responsibility before your appointment. Call us with your insurance details and we'll verify your

    coverage.

  • Do you accept walk-in appointments?

    Yes. We accept walk-ins Monday through Thursday, though scheduled appointments work best to minimize your wait time. We can typically see new patients the same day or within a couple of days.

  • What if I'm pregnant?

    We can provide addiction treatment for pregnant patients as long as you are in compliance with your OB care. Continuing medication-assisted treatment during pregnancy is often the safest option for both you and your baby.

  • What if I need help with transportation?

    If you have Medicaid and need assistance getting to appointments, you may qualify for Medi-Cab services. Call our office and we can provide information about transportation options.

  • Will I have to do drug testing?

    Yes, regular drug screening is a standard part of MAT programs and is required by state regulations. This helps us monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

  • What if I relapse or miss an appointment?

    Recovery isn't always linear, and setbacks happen. We won't judge you - we'll work with you to get back on track. If you miss an appointment, please call us as soon as possible to reschedule.

  • Do I have to do counseling?

    Yes, counseling is an important component of comprehensive addiction treatment. You'll be set up with individual counseling sessions with one of our licensed counselors starting at your second visit.

  • Can you help with my mental health issues too?

    Absolutely. Many people struggling with opioid use also experience depression, anxiety, PTSD, or other mental health concerns. Our team includes psychiatric providers who can evaluate and treat these co-occurring conditions as part of your comprehensive care.
