What Elev8 Center of New Jersey is documented to offer

- Medication-assisted treatment: the facility dispenses or prescribes Buprenorphine and Naltrexone for opioid use disorder. MAT is the most evidence-based pharmacotherapy for OUD.

- LGBTQ population served: the facility self-reports LGBTQ-affirming programming. Ask about specific staff training and clinical policies during intake to confirm the programming depth.
- Veteran programming: the facility is configured to serve veterans — confirm whether care is VA-direct, VA Community Care, TRICARE, or standalone commercial during intake.
- NJ FamilyCare accepted: important for Medicaid-covered patients. Verify which of the five current MCO networks the facility participates in before assuming in-network status.
- State-funded slots available: important for uninsured/underinsured NJ residents. Contact the DMHAS Access Center at 844-276-2777 for current availability.

What to verify before calling Elev8 Center of New Jersey
- NJ DMHAS licensure — confirm current status via the NJ DMHAS licensure lookup.

- Medications policy — if you’re on prescribed buprenorphine, methadone, or other psychiatric medication, confirm the facility’s policy on maintaining your medication during treatment.
- Length-of-stay expectations — ask what a typical length of stay looks like for patients with your clinical presentation.
