733251 tn?1231698321 Hi everyone, I have just recently moved to the Cincinnati, Ohio area and have been on Suboxone for a little while. I have insurance (Medicaid-CareSource). My doctor from where I use to live took my insurance. As you know, alot of doctors are on a cash bases only. Is anyone from my area? Can you recommend a doctor close to Claremont County that takes insurance? Also, I was going to see about getting switched to Subutex because of the bad headaches I do get.
Avatar f tn PART 1/2. I have been a heroin addict for 2 years/opiate addict for over five yrs. Just learned I'm prego today. I want help - more than anything I want help. I'd like to begin a suboxone/subutex treatment but how can I make that happen immediately? How can I make that happen before I need my next heroin dose and begin experiencing withdraws?
2094867 tn?1333064139 Do you think it is possible for me to taper off of suboxone with what I got?(15, 8mg suboxone fims strips) FYI- I have been taking suboxone since March 7th and before that I was on sniffing about 10 pills a day for about 2 years. my craving for sniffing pills is gone, now it's just the suboxone that has me. I was so scared this morning, I still am. I applied for medicaid, just waiting on my letter in the mail, but who knows when that will be here.
Avatar f tn I am on tenncare which is tenncares medicaid program I called every dr in my area until I found 1 that took medicaid. Medicaid does pay for addiction services. It pays for all my dr visits, all my preacriptions everything.
Avatar f tn I have been off Suboxone for at least 15 months. Thinking more and more about my Suboxone doctors ethics... Cash only... 7 years on it with no therapy or a plan to come off of it... He even offered to increase my dose because I felt like I needed more after a couple of years. Glad I didn't and got free from the POS. Just curious if anyone else was offered a higher dose of Suboxone after they had built up a tolerance?
Avatar f tn My husband just got prescribed suboxone. He took his last dose of 100mg liquid methadone Tuesday night and then took 2 8mg film Friday night around 6:00. It through him into immediate withdrawal. He's been in bed all day and doesn't want to continue with the suboxone b/c he can't handle the withdrawal. If I can convince him to keep going how much & how often does he need to take them so he can start to feel normal again. They prescribed him 8mg films.
575529 tn?1217655794 I am seeking suboxone treatment in ohio. I went to NAABT.org and they had 3 doctors email me. I have insurance and they all want at least 450.00 to see me. Is there ANYWHERE in ohio kentucky or indiana I can get treatment using my insurance?
Avatar m tn Most people I know who "can't afford" their meds, spend the money on something else. If their income is low enough to actually not be able to afford them, then Obamacare will cover it. I have found that to be true for everyone I have met. Those who don't qualify may have to do without a $200 television bill or get dumb phones, but I think most people can get their meds if they really want them bad enough.
Avatar n tn The only thing I know to suggest would be switching to Suboxone. She could use the Sub short term (under 21 days) just to get past the withdrawels of the methadone or she could use it long term, but then she would become addicted to the Sub and have to taper off it. Go to Suboxone.com and read about it and also find a doctor in your area. Check out a few different doctors as the priceing and insurance/medicaid will vary greatly. Good luck to both of you.
Avatar m tn I have been on methadone for almost 3 yrs. My story is not special; so, I will spare you the details. The jist of it is started taking pain pills at 15, use increased over the years, clean at age 25, remained clean for several yrs & then came down w a case of stupid. The clinic I was going to did not support tapering down...they supported their wallet. After battling and raising He$$ I decided to take matters into my own hands.
Avatar f tn hello everyone this is my first time posting something on this site so please bare with me ok I was addicted to prescription painkillers for 5 years I went to a rehab facility and when I came out I started suboxone my doctor weaned me off when I was pregnant and when I had my son I was given percocet for the pain of the c-section which afterwards I decided I needed to get back on suboxone some time went by and I lost my job therefore I lost my insurance while I was still taking 8 milligrams of S
Avatar m tn the psychiatrist wanted to keep my on the Suboxone explaining that it is very possible that I may still be on the Suboxone when I had the baby and he could be in withdraw. Even though I wanted to be off of it before he was born, the Dr. did not want me to stress it and said we would do a steady taper, basically he would give me my 2 weeks of meds and I would decide if I wanted to take less. If I did but felt withdraw then there would be extra to compensate.
Avatar f tn He has also taken other opiates something oxyicodone. When I called the detox unit today they told me he was on suboxone but would not get a script for it. He has no job or source of income. He is in the process of a divorce and is very depressed. I called about getting him in a program for suboxone but was informed that all doctors in our area are not accepting patients. Only one and it would take a month and the dr does not accept Medicaid or the Access card in PA.
Avatar n tn No medical coverage trying to get medicaid. He currently is on 50mg methadone steping down 1 mg a day reavaluate at 40 and keep going down from there. Some ware around 30-20 mg/day he is hoping to swith to buprenorphine. We got a doc lined up willing to help. A big problem is money he has none, we cant aford more. Is the methadone stepdown rate realistic?, need to go to 20 Will he need a in paitaint clnic/program to transition? buprenorphine is expensive is there help?
Avatar n tn I want to continue this treatment but I do not know where to start. I have Massachusetts based Medicaid and it will take me atleast a month to sign up for it here. I do not know of any doctors that assist with opiate dependency using syboxone and I truly want to continue with this form of treatment. It has changed my life. However, now I am terrified of going off my medication only to relapse.
Avatar f tn I live in a small town where no Medicaid offices are. Is there a way to apply online?? I'm already 15 weeks and have not had an offical doctors appointment yet.
Avatar f tn Hi all. So just an update, I wrote about Medicaid about a month back, and today I found out that we are eligible! Like I said before, we have insurance, though I would only be covered if I were to have (knock on wood) an emergency C-section. So being that I'm covered, and excited, I got to thinking... what kind of medical attention are my baby and I going to be receiving? Are we going to be pushed to the side because we have Medicaid, and not get the proper attention?
Avatar f tn Since MediCAID is a state funded assistance program (unlike MediCARE which is a federal program), what they do and don't pay for may vary from state to state and sometimes even from county to county. For the best information, I'd suggest you contact your local Social Services Office that you applied for the Medicaid through - they should be able to tell you if the medication is covered, or at the very least, be able to tell you who to contact to find out. Best of luck.
Avatar f tn You can call Medicaid and get your Medicaid number.. Usually when you are approved they send u temp paper cards. That's what Iv used with all my pregnancies.
Avatar f tn I just turned in my application for medicaid. Does anyone know how long it usually takes to get a response? Any advise is helpful.
Avatar f tn Can anyone give me some insight on medicaid and the medicaid star program I asked yesterday and got no help maybe this forum will actually help me.
Avatar f tn Is anyone else waiting for medicaid?! Im almost 9 weeks and I can't make my first appointment until I hear back from medicaid. I've called them once to ask about my application, but was told they would get to it soon. Well, they haven't. I want to know that everything is going alright with my pregnancy, as I am a first timer.. And I'm worried that I'll see a doctor too late.
Avatar f tn Is there any way to apply for medicaid for just my baby and not me before she is born? Most places say I need her SSN to apply but I won't get that for a while after she's born but will still be getting bills.
Avatar f tn I'm on Medicaid too. Superior health plan in Texas. They cover mine. I just have to call them once I have my baby and they'll send one over. Its an up to date electronic pump. I talked to them just today.
Avatar f tn My advice would be drop your insurance and just keep medicaid...medicaid pays for just about everything.
