Care levels at Bridge to Recovery

Bridge to Recovery is an outpatient-focused program (IOP, MAT) — patients live at home or in sober living and attend treatment sessions. This level of care is clinically appropriate for mild-to-moderate substance use disorder, or for patients stepping down from residential.

Under MHPAEA 2024 disclosure rules, plan-specific medical-necessity criteria must be available on request.

Specialty programming

The facility's documented specialty programming includes: Adult women, Adult men, Clients with co-occurring mental and substance use disorders.
