About Ramon Velez Health Center

The Ramón Vélez Health Care Center is a bilingual health care center that offers a variety of primary care and substance abuse treatments. They offer residential and outpatient detox and medication assisted treatment (MAT) for adults.

Depending on the needs and symptoms of patients, they may be admitted into residential or outpatient detox. In residential detox, patients go through withdrawal in a sterile and safe environment with constant medical supervision. On the other hand, outpatient detox gives patients the flexibility to receive treatment while maintaining their responsibilities. In both residential and outpatient detox, physicians may prescribe medications to assist with withdrawal symptoms.

MAT is an evidence-based treatment modality that provides a blend of medications and counseling to treat substance abuse. Medications such as methadone, Suboxone and naltrexone may be administered to ease psychological cravings and reduce the risk of relapse or overdose.

They accept Medicaid, Medicare, Managed Care plans and private health insurance plans. A sliding fee scale program based on income and family size is also available. Please contact your provider to confirm coverage as out of network benefits can vary.
