Pacific Alcohol and Drug Counseling

Located in Hillsboro, OR, Pacific Alcohol and Drug Counseling operates within the OR regulatory framework as a licensed addiction-treatment provider. The facility's programming is outpatient (IOP), not residential. Structural evaluation of this facility's clinical posture requires review of state licensing records, accreditation status, and payer-network contracts.

Care levels at Pacific Alcohol and Drug Counseling

Pacific Alcohol and Drug Counseling is an outpatient-focused program (IOP) — 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. ASAM Criteria 4e level-of-care matching requires clinical assessment across six dimensions (withdrawal potential, biomedical conditions, emotional/behavioral/cognitive conditions, readiness, relapse risk, recovery environment). The alignment of Pacific Alcohol and Drug Counseling's offerings to any specific patient's clinical profile should be determined by an independent ASAM-aligned assessment prior to admission.

Insurance and payment

Pacific Alcohol and Drug Counseling accepts Medicaid — which is consequential because facilities that accept Medicaid tend to have the broadest patient populations and the most developed public-sector relationships, though reimbursement structures mean program intensity sometimes differs from commercial-focused centers. Benefit verification should be obtained in writing prior to admission and should document: network contract status for the specific insurance product, prior authorization requirements and approved day-count, applicable cost-sharing structure, and out-of-network secondary coverage (where applicable). Proceeding on verbal VOB creates material risk of post-admission benefit dispute.

Before you call

Pre-admission documentation for Pacific Alcohol and Drug Counseling should include ASAM-framework level-of-care justification, plan-specific Verification of Benefits with network-contract confirmation, written MAT policy for opioid use disorder patients where applicable, and licensure/accreditation verification. If the clinical situation involves opioid use disorder, confirm explicitly whether Pacific Alcohol and Drug Counseling offers medication-assisted treatment — buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone. Programs that do not are operating outside the current standard of care.
