How to Evaluate Rehab Facilities Near This Area

• Verify OBH Licensure — Confirm active Colorado state licensure at cdphe.colorado.gov/obh before any admission; unlicensed programs cannot legally bill insurance and operate without regulatory oversight
• Check TJC or CARF Accreditation — Joint Commission (TJC) or CARF accreditation confirms the facility meets nationally recognized clinical quality and patient rights standards above the minimum licensing threshold
• Require an ASAM Assessment at Intake — A formal six-dimensional ASAM evaluation must determine the level of care; programs that skip this step and admit everyone to the same level are a clinical concern
• Confirm MAT Integration — For opioid or alcohol use disorder, verify the program offers FDA-approved buprenorphine, naltrexone (Vivitrol), or methadone prescribing by a licensed physician
• Ask About Aftercare Linkage — The best programs begin discharge planning at admission; ask about step-down pathways, alumni support, and community linkages before you sign
