How this clinic compares in Newark

This is a day program: you attend for a substantial part of the day and go home at night.

American Habitare and Counseling Inc is one of 18 buprenorphine providers listed in Newark. On the coverage and access signals the registry records, it is indistinguishable from 1 other Newark clinic, so treat the points below as the real differences rather than any ranking.

What stands out here

  • It accepts TRICARE or military insurance. Only 2 of 18 Newark clinics do (11%).
  • It has sign language services. Only 2 of 18 Newark clinics do (11%).
  • It treats adolescents. Only 3 of 18 Newark clinics do (17%).

What it does not report

  • No record that it offers a sliding fee scale. 67% of Newark clinics do, so this is worth confirming rather than assuming.

Worth asking when you call

  • Whether they are taking new patients, which changes faster than the registry updates.
  • The self-pay price for a first visit, and whether the medication is billed separately.
  • How soon a first appointment is available, and what to bring.
