How this clinic compares in Honolulu

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

Department of Veterans Affairs is one of 23 buprenorphine providers listed in Honolulu. Its combination of coverage and access is unique among them.

What stands out here

  • It accepts TRICARE or military insurance. Only 4 of 23 Honolulu clinics do (17%).
  • It accepts Medicare. Only 5 of 23 Honolulu clinics do (22%).
  • It runs a program for veterans. Only 5 of 23 Honolulu clinics do (22%).

What it does not report

  • No record that it treats adolescents. 65% of Honolulu clinics do, so this is worth confirming rather than assuming.
  • No record that it has sign language services. 61% of Honolulu 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.
  • How soon a first appointment is available, and what to bring.
