A starting point for your questions.
Asking for help with substance use is a personal step. BHS includes substance use treatment in its behavioral healthcare services. Contact Fitchburg to discuss available outpatient services and the appropriate intake process.
What to discuss with the team
- Ask which substance use services are currently available.
- Discuss appointment arrangements and the information needed for intake.
- Ask how treatment may connect with your broader behavioral healthcare needs.
A plan built around the individual
Outpatient care may not meet every level of need. The clinical team should help determine the appropriate setting. This website does not provide detoxification advice, emergency care, or an assessment of withdrawal risk.

Helpful questions
Can I book this service immediately?
Scheduling depends on current location-specific availability, provider suitability, and any required assessment. The form is a callback request, not an appointment confirmation.
Will my insurance cover this?
Coverage depends on your plan, provider, service, and eligibility. Please confirm directly with the office and your insurer.
Is this information medical advice?
No. This page provides general information about accessing care, not an individualized recommendation. Discuss clinical decisions with a qualified professional.
