The addiction treatment and detox center industry is growing fast and federal regulations like Affordable Care Act (ACA) are helping make addiction treatment more accessible. Before the ACA, addiction treatment was largely cash pay, and patients primarily found these centers through referrals from counselors, hospitals, churches and even the court system.
The implementation of the Affordable Care Act changed everything. It offered a significant expansion of substance use disorder and mental health coverage under Health Insurance Marketplace plans, plus many individual and small employer health insurance plans. This means more people can now seek addiction treatments and detox services. This also means they have more centers to choose from, making differentiating your brand critical in attracting patients.
Patients – and loved ones of patients – have pivoted from relying on referrals to prioritizing online research to learn everything about you brand. They are also looking for information about you, your center, your treatment programs and methodologies, reviews from others who have been through your program, success rates, and more. And you need to deliver this in a strategic way.
To attract more patients and grow your business, you need a digital presence that elevates you above the noise. You need RUNNER Agency.

While insurance coverage has expanded to help more people get treatment, competition among providers remains fierce and more and more providers are opening new centers across the country.
