How this clinic compares in Chattanooga

This is a residential program, meaning you stay on site rather than visiting and going home the same day.

Focus Treatment Centers is one of 21 buprenorphine providers listed in Chattanooga. Its combination of coverage and access is unique among them.

What stands out here

  • It runs a program for veterans. Only 4 of 21 Chattanooga clinics do (19%).
  • It is accredited by the Joint Commission. Only 6 of 21 Chattanooga clinics do (29%).
  • It has sign language services. Only 7 of 21 Chattanooga clinics do (33%).

What it does not report

  • No record that it accepts Medicaid. 76% of Chattanooga clinics do, so this is worth confirming rather than assuming.

Worth asking when you call

  • Whether they are taking new patients, which changes faster than the registry updates.
  • The self-pay price for a first visit, and whether the medication is billed separately.
  • How soon a first appointment is available, and what to bring.
