About BHG Kansas City North Treatment Center
Behavioral Health Group (BHG) is a major provider of outpatient care for addiction recovery, working closely with referral partners to help people move forward after opioid use. Using practices supported by research, BHG brings together a multidisciplinary team that combines medication-assisted treatment (MAT), counseling, and wraparound supports. These services are designed around each patient’s individual objectives and recovery plan.
BHG operates 114 treatment centers in 22 states, making it the largest Joint Commission-accredited outpatient treatment network in the United States. This wide footprint helps the organization deliver standardized best practices across locations and support more than 43,000 patients each day. Program results indicate that 92% of patients report better quality of life and mental health, 83% note reduced substance use, and 45% find employment within their first year in treatment.
BHG also falls within the 4.2% of opioid treatment providers nationwide that provide all three FDA-approved medications for opioid use disorder. In addition, select sites pair these medications with counseling and intensive outpatient programs (IOP). BHG’s whole-person model focuses on improving staying in treatment, lowering opioid use, reducing risky behaviors, and strengthening sustained long-term recovery.
