About Morehead VA Clinic – Morehead
If you’ve heard of Morehead, Kentucky, you might immediately think of Morehead State University or Cave Run Lake, but it’s also home to the Morehead VA clinic. This center offers addiction treatment, mental healthcare and medical care to veterans and military members.
When you’re at the VA, you can pay for care using either VA coverage or other insurance. VA coverage is used for service-connected care, and other plans are used for non service-connected care.
All VA clinics provide certain services, including mental health and substance use counseling. They can address co-occurring mental health and addiction diagnoses as well.
If you’re a veteran, you’ve probably experienced things no civilian would ever understand. That’s why it’s so important to get care from — and with — others who have been through what you’re going through.
The VA can connect you with a variety of treatment services including medical detox, inpatient treatment and outpatient care. The VA also offers medication assisted treatment (MAT) when appropriate.
Another thing that’s unique about the VA is that they can help you with a wide range of services at a single clinic. For example, if you need HIV or Hep C testing or treatment for those illnesses, they can take care of you. They can also manage wound care, which can happen as a result of substance use. Being able to receive the mental health and addiction counseling you need along with complementary medical care can make it much easier to get your needs met.
