Addiction treatment provider organization Spero Health, Inc., plans to expand into West Virginia and North Carolina in early 2022. It has not released details about the number of new locations planned for each state.
Spero Health offers a community-based approach to outpatient addiction treatment, so consumers have quick access to care close to home, allowing them to stay connected to their community. The organization reported over half a million consumer visits in 2021 that include a combination of: medical care provided by primary care professionals and nurse practitioners, group and individual counseling and other recovery support assistance. In addition during 2021, Spero Health expanded its service line to include treatment for Hepatitis C, Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) in select clinics, a focus on wellness for all consumers needing smoking cessation treatment, and depression screenings – treatment and education, increase in telehealth services, peer support and expansion of psychiatric services. The company also expanded its programs to provide specialty treatments for trauma, stimulant use and gender groups.
The company uses an innovative evidence-based integrated care model that combines both physical and behavioral health care services under one roof to treat the whole consumer. This integrated care model combines primary care professional services (including medication-assisted treatment), behavioral health counseling, recovery support services, medication management and consumer and family education. Its community-based approach to treatment allows consumers to continue working and caring for their families as they overcome addiction. Based in Nashville, Tennessee and privately held by Heritage Group, Health Velocity Capital, South Central, Inc. and Frist Cressey Ventures, Spero Health operates over 70 outpatient clinics located throughout Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Virginia and Tennessee. Spero Health is a national leader who has helped more than 25,000 consumers on their journey to stable recovery from addiction and is in-network with Medicaid and most commercial insurance plans.
