Questions to ask Sstar
- Is my specific plan in network, and do you need prior authorization before admission?
- Do you provide medical detox on site, and how many days does it usually last?
- How long is the typical residential stay, and can family visit?
- Which medications do you prescribe (buprenorphine, methadone, naltrexone), and can I continue a medication I already take?
- 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 Massachusetts (this facility reports accreditation). If you are withdrawing from alcohol or benzodiazepines, ask about medical detox; do not stop suddenly on your own.
