We know that making the call for treatment can be frightening and overwhelming. This is why we let you know what you can expect when you call us.
Step 1: The Initial Call and Pre-Screening
When you call us, one of our professional representatives will have a conversation with you. You have the opportunity to share what has been happening in your life with someone who cares and wants to listen. They will ask you some questions about your substance use, mental health, and medical history. You can expect to be asked questions such as:
- SUBSTANCE USE
What is your substance of choice and your history with substance abuse? How long have you been using drugs or drinking, what age you were when you and how much you are using.
- LIVING SITUATION
Do you have a stable living environment? If not, what is your living situation?
- MEDICAL HISTORY
Do you have any medical conditions such as a heart condition, diabetes, or others we should be aware of?
- MENTAL HEALTH HISTORY
Have you been diagnosed with any mental health conditions such as bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, PTSD, or anxiety? Are you currently receiving treatment for these conditions?
- EATING DISORDER HISTORY
Have you been diagnosed with an eating disorder? Are you in remission?
- ANY ADDITIONAL MEDICAL INFORMATION
You may feel hesitant to share this information, perhaps concerned that it will be shared with your family or employer. Be assured that your call and answers are 100% confidential, and any information gathered is protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). This means that your protected medical information, from your assessment to treatment. Our clinical team reviews the information to determine the appropriate level of care for you to begin treatment.
Step 2: Payment and Insurance
We believe recovery should be available to anyone in need of help. Crystal Lake Healing works with most major insurance carriers to ensure we can provide you with comprehensive treatment for drug or alcohol use and co-occurring disorders.
While on your initial call to us, our admissions representative will ask for your insurance information. This allows us to verify your benefits and determine your coverage for treatment.
We are also able to review any payments or co-payments you may be responsible for covering. Additionally, we provide payment options if you are uninsured, under-insured, or do not want to use your insurance benefits for personal reasons.
