Benzodiazepine addiction treatment in NYC

Clinical review for Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan, Valium, sedative use, withdrawal safety, anxiety, sleep, and medication coordination.

Benzodiazepines and sedatives require careful medical review because stopping suddenly can be dangerous. A visit can review current use, prescribed medications, alcohol or opioid use, seizure history, anxiety, sleep, and whether outpatient care is safe.

Nao Medical accepts many major insurance plans for addiction medicine and behavioral-health visits, including Medicaid, Medicare, Medicare Advantage, Healthfirst, MetroPlus, Fidelis, UnitedHealthcare, United Healthcare Community Plan, EmblemHealth, Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and many commercial plans. Coverage can vary by visit type, testing, counseling, medication, pharmacy benefit, and prior authorization requirements, so benefit verification is still important before care begins.

Medication bottles, dose schedule, prescriber name, pharmacy, prior taper attempts, seizure history, alcohol or opioid use, and recent hospital records.

Book an addiction medicine visit

If symptoms are severe, withdrawal feels unsafe, there is overdose risk, or a person may hurt themselves or someone else, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. Addiction medicine visits are not a substitute for emergency care.
