Questions to ask Counseling First
- What does treatment cost without insurance, and do you offer a payment plan or sliding fee?
- How many hours a week is the outpatient or IOP schedule, and are evening groups available?
- If I need medication for opioid or alcohol use disorder, do you prescribe it or refer out?
- Is there a waitlist, and how soon can you do an assessment?
- What happens after the program ends: aftercare, alumni groups or step-down care?
Also confirm the facility is licensed by Illinois. If you are withdrawing from alcohol or benzodiazepines, ask about medical detox; do not stop suddenly on your own.
Paying for treatment at Counseling First
Counseling First did not report which payment types it accepts. If you have Medicaid, ask whether the facility accepts your Illinois Medicaid plan or can refer you to one that does.
