Any issue—medication, refills, pharmacy—they handle it fast. I’ve never felt judged, just understood. Thanks to their consistent care and follow-through, I’m still moving forward. Thank you, EmeraldCare.”
    FAQS

    How It Works & What to Expect

    Do I need insurance to be seen at EmeraldCare?

    We welcome patients with Medicaid, commercial insurance plans, and those without insurance. If you’re uninsured, we’ll work with you to create a payment plan that fits your situation—because access to care shouldn’t depend on coverage.

    Can I just get medication without going to therapy?

    Therapy is a often a recommended part of treatment for patients receiving medication-assisted treatment (MAT). While we don’t provide therapy, we’ll help you connect with a trusted therapist in your area or through telehealth. If you already have a therapist, we’re happy to coordinate care so everything works together to support your recovery.

    How quickly can I be seen?

    Most new patients are scheduled within a few days, and same-week or even same-day evaluations are often available. We’ll do our best to get you in quickly and comfortably. 

    Can I switch from another provider to EmeraldCare?

    Yes. Whether you’re continuing care or seeking a new provider, we’ll help transfer your medical records and treatment history. Our goal is to make the transition smooth and stress-free. 

    What happens during the first appointment?

    You’ll meet with one of our licensed providers to talk about your symptoms, history, and what you’re hoping to get out of care. From there, we’ll build a personalized plan that may include medication, referrals, or follow-up visits. 

    Do you treat both mental health and substance use disorders?

    Yes. EmeraldCare specializes in care for mental health, addiction, and co-occurring disorders. If you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, opioid dependence, or a combination, we’ll help you find the support you need in one place.

    Is telehealth as effective as in-person treatment?

    Yes. Many of our patients choose telehealth because it’s convenient and easy to access. Whether you meet with us in person or online, you’ll receive the same level of compassionate, personalized care from our providers.
