Wellbridge Addiction Treatment and Research announced that it is now an in-network provider organization with United Behavioral Health (UBH) for inpatient stabilization (detoxification), inpatient rehabilitation and residential (extended stay). With UBH approval, Wellbridge is able to provide additional access to consumers and families seeking treatment for substance use disorders (SUDs).
Wellbridge was founded on the mission to provide people with addiction access to the most scientifically advanced addiction treatment. The purpose-built, 96-acre campus opened Monday, May 18, 2020 in Calverton, Long Island, approximately 70 miles from New York City. In partnership with Northwell Health, New York State’s largest healthcare provider organization, and NY-based real estate firm, Engel Burman, Wellbridge sets a new standard of care that incorporates the latest addiction research into the most innovative treatments, an addiction-recovery learning lab, and a community education program.
Wellbridge also currently accepts Cigna. For those not covered by UBH or Cigna, Wellbridge helps individuals access all of their available out-of-network benefits from any insurance or employee assistance plan they may have.
Wellbridge is currently accepting individuals for treatment and can be toured by private appointment.
Wellbridge Addiction Treatment and Research Center is committed to helping every person affected by addiction achieve long-lasting recovery, as well as provide their families with the skills and support they may need. By integrating research, clinical care, and community education in a safe and supportive environment, Wellbridge is accelerating the integration of new discoveries into advanced addiction care, which will be shared with addiction professionals worldwide. As an epicenter for the study and treatment of addiction, Wellbridge is focused on advancing the scientific and medical understanding of addiction and incorporating research and treatment into one setting for quality care and improved outcomes. Wellbridge is a joint venture between Northwell Health, Engel Burman and co-founder and chief executive officer, Andrew Drazan.
