Before you call

Have your insurance or Medicaid card ready and ask whether the facility is in network.
Ask how soon they can do an assessment and whether there is a waitlist.
Confirm the facility is licensed by Connecticut.
If you are withdrawing from alcohol or benzodiazepines, ask about medical detox; do not stop suddenly on your own.
