Nao Medical

Telemedicine addiction treatment in New York

Virtual addiction medicine visits for selected needs, with local clinic backup when testing, physical assessment, or medication administration is needed.

Telemedicine can make addiction care easier to start or continue, but not every need belongs online. The care team can review whether a virtual visit fits the medication question, counseling need, safety risk, insurance situation, and follow-up plan.

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.

Addiction care works best with clear next steps The visit can clarify medication needs, counseling fit, testing, coverage, family support, and whether another level of care is safer.

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.
