Discharge-to-outpatient handoff in one phone call.
Restoration Recovery is a CARF-accredited outpatient addiction treatment provider with four clinics across Southeast Tennessee and North Georgia. We accept discharge handoffs from inpatient detox, inpatient psychiatric stabilization, residential rehab step-downs, and post-acute medical hospitalizations where ongoing MAT is part of the discharge plan.
Insurance breadth
TennCare (BlueCare, UHC Community Plan, Wellpoint), commercial (BCBS-TN, Cigna, Aetna, Ambetter, UHC, Humana, Tricare), Medicare + Medicare Advantage, GA Medicaid CMOs (CareSource + new-for-2026 Humana/Molina/UHC), self-pay.
Geographic coverage
Four clinics across Hamilton/Bradley/Catoosa counties and the surrounding region. Telehealth follow-up across all of TN and GA after the first in-person visit reduces travel burden for rural patients.
Discharge handoff workflow
- Call 423-498-2000 from the floor. Ask for the intake coordinator. Identify your hospital, the discharge date, and the patient's medication regimen at discharge.
- Verify insurance during the call — takes ~5 minutes. We confirm in-network status, copay, and any prior-auth needs.
- Patient signs 42 CFR Part 2 release authorizing communication back to the hospital social work team. We provide standard ROI forms; patient can also sign at the first visit.
- We schedule the first appointment at the clinic closest to the patient's residence — typically same-week, often within 2–3 days. The patient leaves discharge with the appointment time, address, and bridge prescription if needed.
What we treat
- Opioid use disorder — Suboxone (daily), Sublocade (monthly injection), Brixadi (weekly/bi-weekly/monthly injection)
- Alcohol use disorder — Vivitrol (monthly injection), Acamprosate (daily oral)
- Kratom and 7-OH dependence — buprenorphine-family medications
- Stimulant, benzodiazepine, and cannabis use disorders — counseling, peer support, behavioral therapies
- Group IOP, behavioral health, and psychiatric care at the Chattanooga flagship for higher-acuity patients
- Integrated Hepatitis C treatment at all four clinics
What we do NOT offer (refer elsewhere first)
No medical detox, no PHP, no residential, no inpatient psychiatric care. Patients still in active medical withdrawal or acute psychiatric instability need stabilization at a higher level of care first; we receive the step-down handoff once the patient is stable for outpatient.
