Starlite Recovery Center

What Starlite Recovery Center does

Starlite Recovery Center is a substance use disorder treatment facility founded in 1957 and headquartered on a 55-acre campus in Center Point, Texas, operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACHC). It delivers a full continuum of adult addiction care including medically supervised detoxification with 24/7 nursing, 30–45 day residential treatment, intensive outpatient programs (IOP) at Kerrville and New Braunfels, partial hospitalization (PHP), medication-assisted treatment (MAT), dual-diagnosis treatment for co-occurring mental health disorders, and telehealth programming. Specialty tracks target distinct populations: Operation Liberty (active-duty military and veterans), Cover 6 (first responders), The Freedom (LGBTQ+ clients), and The Journey (Christian/faith-based clients), supported by evidence-based therapies (CBT, DBT, 12-Step), experiential therapies (equine-assisted therapy, ropes course with rock wall and zip line, yoga, massage, acupuncture), family therapy, and 24/7 alumni support.

Its clinical platform rests on a multidisciplinary staff of physicians, nurses, counselors, and experiential therapists operating under CARF accreditation, Texas Department of State Health Services licensure, HIPAA, and 42 CFR Part 2 federal compliance. The go-to-market is sales-led: a 24/7 phone hotline (833-730-2035), online assessments, free insurance verification, professional referrals, and on-site campus tours drive admissions primarily from the San Antonio and Austin corridors and across greater Texas via telehealth. Revenue is generated per program episode at residential, PHP, IOP, MAT, and detox rates, billed through in-network agreements with 14 major commercial and government payers including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, United Healthcare, Humana, Tricare, and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. The facility also accepts direct insurance verification via the admissions team and runs a dedicated alumni channel for continuing-care engagement.
