What CODAC Behavioral Healthcare does

CODAC Behavioral Healthcare is a Rhode Island-based nonprofit (founded 1971; 251–500 employees) that operates the largest nonprofit outpatient Opioid Use Disorder treatment platform in the state. Its core technology is Medication-Assisted Treatment using all FDA-approved agents—methadone, buprenorphine/Suboxone, Sublicade, oral naltrexone, and injectable depot naltrexone (Vivitrol)—combined with counseling and wraparound services delivered through eight community-based outpatient clinics, two correctional facility programs (RI Adult Correctional Institution and Donald W. Wyatt Detention Center), and mobile medical units reaching underserved communities. The clinical platform is augmented by Hepatitis C rapid testing, Naloxone distribution and training, fentanyl education, trauma-informed mental health services, gambling disorder treatment (via Problem Gambling Services of Rhode Island), tobacco cessation, and—as of 2023—fully integrated primary care, dentistry, maternal health, pharmacy, and social-services navigation at the Royal Little Drive site in Providence.

The organization's go-to-market combines community-based access (walk-ins, self-referrals, 24/7 on-call hotline, family-initiated contact, treatment initiation within 48 hours) with structured referral networks from emergency departments, primary care, mental health providers, and law enforcement (HOPE Initiative). Payer mix spans Medicaid, Ritecare, and commercial plans (United Healthcare, Neighborhood Health Plans, Tufts, Blue Cross); Rhode Island Lottery appropriations fund problem gambling services and 100% of treatment for un/underinsured gambling clients. Revenue is therefore encounter-driven fee-for-service and per-member-per-month Health Home payments from Medicaid—supplemented by state contracts (RI Department of Corrections), Lottery funding, and grants (e.g., $225K from The Champlin Foundation in 2020)—with no consumer out-of-pocket pricing disclosed. All sites hold the State of Rhode Island Center of Excellence designation and ongoing CARF national accreditation.
