Refer a Patient

When someone you serve needs help for a substance use disorder (SUD), BrightView makes the referral process simple and respectful. We offer local, comprehensive addiction treatment that combines medication assisted treatment, counseling, and social support in one welcoming environment.

Our team works alongside healthcare organizations, alcohol and other drug (AOD) treatment programs, community organizations, and justice system partners to help patients access the right care when they need it.

Who we work with

BrightView partners with a wide range of professionals and organizations that share our goal of improving community health and recovery outcomes. We gladly accept referrals from: 

  • Healthcare organizations: Primary care providers (PCPs), hospitals, emergency departments, urgent care centers, pain management, and behavioral health professionals 
  • AOD treatment programs: Inpatient, detox, or intensive outpatient programs 
  • Community organizations: Faith-based programs, food pantries, domestic violence shelters, housing providers, and non-profits 
  • Justice system partners: Probation and parole officers, drug courts, and judicial programs 

Whether you refer one patient or establish an ongoing partnership, we are ready to collaborate. 

A collaborative approach to ongoing care

At BrightView, we view referrals as the start of a partnership. We work as an extension of your care team—not a replacement. When appropriate, we provide updates to referring partners to maintain collaboration and continuity of care. Our focus is always on the patient’s well-being and continuity of care. 

  • We respect existing provider relationships and communicate transparently 
  • We support patient transitions after inpatient, detox, or community programs 
  • We complement existing MAT programs by providing behavioral health and social support when needed 

Every referral is handled with professionalism, confidentiality, and integrity. You can trust that patients you refer will be treated with the same respect and care you would want for your own patients. 

How to refer a patient

It’s simple to connect someone to care at BrightView. You can refer a patient anytime by phone or online. Together, we can help more people access the treatment and support they deserve in their communities. 

How we support patients

Every patient receives an individualized plan designed by licensed clinicians. BrightView’s outpatient treatment includes: 

  • Medication assisted treatment (MAT) using FDA-approved options such as methadone, buprenorphine or naltrexone, along with generic alternatives 
  • Counseling to address emotional health and build recovery skills 
  • Social support to connect patients with housing, employment, and transportation resources 

All services are provided under one roof, making treatment accessible and coordinated. Our outpatient treatment centers provide care for both substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions in a respectful, judgment-free setting. Learn More About BrightView’s Approach.

Evidence-based, measurable outcomes

Our outpatient treatment model works. This integrated approach helps patients manage physical symptoms, address emotional needs, and build lasting recovery. 

Brighter results after 90 days of treatment:  

Patients reported a 44% decrease in their use of illicit drugs  

Patients cut their alcohol use nearly in half

Patients reported a 27% decrease in feelings of depression, anxiety, or anger

These measurable results reflect the impact of compassionate, consistent care and the power of collaboration between BrightView and our community partners. 

Ease of access and coordination

We make it easy for partners to refer and for patients to begin care quickly:  

  • Same-day appointments and weekday walk-ins available 
  • 24/7 phone support for new patient scheduling
  • Medicaid, Medicare, and most insurance plans accepted 
  • No patient is ever turned away, regardless of insurance status or recent substance use
