About Fenway Health Ansin Building

The Ansin Building is in the heart of Boston, Massachusetts. It’s across the street from Fenway Park and other local attractions. It's part of Fenway Health, a provider dedicated to elevating underserved populations with a focus on the LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities. They provide care on an outpatient basis.

While they see people of all ages, anyone 18 or older needs to be a patient with a Fenway primary care physician.

What I find special about this clinic is that they provide more than addiction and mental health care for the LGBTQIA+ community. Several services are in place to address the community's needs, such as violence recovery and parenting support. A complete list of their services shows just how heavily invested they are in serving the underserved.

Joining Mental and Medical Care

Fenway Health has a truly impressive number of healthcare departments, from primary to specialized care. What's great about their behavioral health services is that they not only collaborate with these other departments, they can help you get seen by them.

Consolidating your care to as few locations as possible is more than a matter of convenience. It makes it much easier for your providers to communicate and coordinate care. However, the major appeal to me is that Fenway Health's dedication to minority communities extends to all its departments. If it's important to you that your care providers truly understand your lived experience, linkages like this may be to your liking.

Advocating For You

Ansin Building staff offer a number of medical social services. The main focus of these programs is advocating for your needs.

It isn't always easy to be heard, and if you feel like you aren't being heard, it can undermine your recovery efforts. Having an advocate in your corner means you'll have someone else echoing and directing your concerns to the right spaces. You should always have a voice in your care, and a medical advocate ensures you will.

Groups for LGBTQIA+

In addition to skills based groups, LGBTQIA+ specific groups are available. These are safe spaces to meet with peers and discuss the issues that impact you most. Whether you use it as a means to connect with others or to lend and get support, having a tailor made group can be a valuable asset in recovery.

Fenway Health accepts Medicaid and some private insurance plans. Services are also available at a reduced or no cost to those who qualify. However, do note that when games are taking place at Fenway Park, parking rates can soar higher than a flyball. Should your appointment fall on a game day, the staff recommends taking public transportation.

Levels of Care

Detox & MAT

The first step to a drug-free future is detox. This involves slowly and safely ridding your body of all addict...ive substances, under 24/7 supervision. This is typically the initial phase of drug rehab in Massachusetts.

Outpatient Rehab

Massachusetts outpatient rehab does not have a defined timeline. The program is tailored to meet your recovery... needs, and may last 90 days or a year or more. During this time, you will attend therapy sessions and support group meetings, for ongoing accountability and development of sober-living skills.

Aftercare & Alumni Program

Aftercare rehab in Massachusetts gives you continued access to support after rehab. You may need assistance wi...th job coaching, budgeting, education, or accountability as you re-enter your life. Aftercare programs provide these supports, so you can face challenges and maintain a sober lifestyle long-term.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

If you meet the diagnostic criteria for two or more conditions, you have a dual diagnosis. Massachusetts dual ...diagnosis treatment is designed to address both conditions simultaneously, for improved recovery outcomes.

Financial Aid

If you're struggling to pay for treatment, financial aid may be a solution for you. This can provide access to... all levels of care. Financial assistance options include grants, scholarships, non-profit programs, personal funding, and health insurance programs to help you manage the expense of substance abuse treatment.

Payment Plans & Financing

For those who are underinsured or uninsured, paying the total cost of a rehab program up front is not feasible.... Fortunately, many alcohol and drug rehabs make financing available to potential clients through private loans, in-house payment plans, or partner lenders. You can choose a finance package that lets you start treatment immediately and pay for it later.

Medicaid Accepted

If you're in need of financial assistance, MassHealth may be an option for you. MassHealth can help pay for al...l levels of care, including detox and inpatient rehabilitation.

Medicare Accepted

As a resident of Massachusetts with MassHealth Senior Care Options, you may have coverage options to help with... the cost of treatment. The amount of coverage will depend on many things, including whether you are seeking inpatient or outpatient treatment for substance abuse.

TRICARE

Administered by the Department of Defense, TRICARE offers comprehensive military health insurance plans for ac...tive and retired military members and their families. Similar to PPO programs offered by private insurance companies, TRICARE covers multiple levels of care for addiction treatment, including detox, inpatient rehab, and outpatient services.

Private Insurance

If you have private insurance, you can use it to help cover the cost of treatment. Most rehab insurance polici...es tend to have different coverage rates and costs that policyholders are responsible for paying, so check with your insurer for detailed information.

Self-Pay Options

If you prefer to take control of the cost of your treatment, you can opt to pay for it yourself through self-p...ay options, also known as private pay. This option provides access to all levels of care — from detox to inpatient rehabilitation — because you’re not limited by the rules of insurers or state-run programs.
