The need for real detox beds located in the kingdom (1-7 day stay).
This could be in a central location, or split between St. Jay/Newport or
another location
The need for a continuum of treatment; those coming out of detox
would progress to either a 28 day early Recovery Inpatient Center
located in the Kingdom; or, a 14 day inpatient/14 day intensive
outpatient; or any combination of this determined by the needs of the
client.
Need treatment for immediate beds, beds for both detox and
inpatient that are close and immediately available.
Perhaps availability of more IOP programs and types, and more overall
choice in the continuum of care, as mentioned above
How can we get Big Pharma to help finance this treatment?
A barrier for some is that they cannot afford their meds and counseling
because of insurance issues. A case surfaced this week with a person
wanting to taper off Suboxone who is now working and applied on the
Exchange, as he needs to come off VHAP. BC will supposedly not pay
for the Strip/film, only generic Buprenmorphine, and Treatment
Associates will only prescribe the film for safety reasonsthere are
exceptions in case of allergic reaction. In addition, his meds,
counseling Doctors visits and groups will now have a prohibitive cost
and will threaten his Recovery. This will undoubtedly happen to others
and should be addressed proactively.
In addition, BAART does not bill Medicare or private insurances; this
could be a large problem as more clients transition to the Exchange
What are the costs associated with treatment and lost productivity
etc., versus not treating those in need?
