About BHG Elizabethtown Treatment Center
Behavioral Health Group (BHG) is a major provider of outpatient addiction care, working alongside referral partners to help people recover from opioid use. Using practices supported by research, BHG’s multidisciplinary staff combines medication-assisted treatment (MAT), counseling, and coordinated wraparound support, adapting the plan to the specific objectives and recovery journey of each patient.
With 114 outpatient treatment centers in 22 states, BHG is the largest Joint Commission-accredited outpatient network in the United States. This wide footprint enables the organization to apply consistent high-quality standards across its sites, helping more than 43,000 patients each day. The organization reports strong results: 92% of patients show improved quality of life and mental health, 83% report reduced substance use, and 45% obtain employment during their first year of treatment.
BHG also falls within the 4.2% of national treatment organizations that provide all three FDA-approved medications for opioid use disorder, along with counseling and intensive outpatient programs (IOP) in select locations. Its whole-person model is designed to improve engagement in treatment, lower opioid use, reduce risky behaviors, and support sustained long-term recovery.
