Our Integrative Behavioral Health Partnerships

The United States is facing a mental health and substance use epidemic that has created complex clinical and business challenges for the healthcare industry. Emergency rooms and inpatient units are being overutilized for psychiatric care, there is an immense need for more specialized behavioral healthcare services, and there is a severe lack of step-down programs and services.

Acadia Healthcare provides long-term solutions to these challenges by developing integrative behavioral health partnerships with nonprofit and for-profit health systems and hospitals around the country, expanding access to care for patients, their families, and communities. We tailor each partnership to meet the specific needs of the individual behavioral healthcare system or hospital and the unique dynamics of its local community.

Acadia Healthcare is leading the charge in innovating integrated healthcare, making it the partner of choice for countless hospitals and health systems across the United States.

At Acadia Healthcare, we understand that strategic partnerships are critical to meeting the needs of today’s evolving healthcare landscape. Each integrative behavioral health partnership involves a dynamic blend of local authority and centralized support, taking into consideration the unique needs and preferences of each partnership.

When we form partnerships with health systems and hospitals, we offer several ways to collaborate with us, including:

• Joint ventures
• Acquisitions
• Emergency department psychiatric services management
• Mobile assessments
