DUI and Addiction Counseling Center

DUI and Addiction Counseling Center is an addiction-treatment facility located in Salem, OR. The facility's programming is outpatient (Outpatient, Dual Dx), not residential. What follows is an orientation — not a review — to the practical questions worth asking before admission.

Care levels at DUI and Addiction Counseling Center

On care levels specifically: DUI and Addiction Counseling Center is an outpatient-focused program (Outpatient, Dual Dx) — patients live at home or in sober living and attend treatment sessions. This level of care is clinically appropriate for mild-to-moderate substance use disorder, or for patients stepping down from residential. What that means in practice is that matching DUI and Addiction Counseling Center to the right clinical situation depends on whether you or a loved one needs the level of care this facility actually offers — which is a clinician's judgment, not a facility's sales pitch.

Insurance and payment

DUI and Addiction Counseling Center accepts Medicaid — which is consequential because facilities that accept Medicaid tend to have the broadest patient populations and the most developed public-sector relationships, though reimbursement structures mean program intensity sometimes differs from commercial-focused centers. What tends to produce post-admission financial surprise is not the facility being out of network — it is the verbal assurance that did not make it into writing. Ask for the written VOB before admission, save the email, and the rest of the financial conversation becomes a lot simpler.

Specialty programming

The facility's documented specialty programming includes: Young adults, Adult women, Adult men. Specialty programming varies substantially by facility — some facilities offer "dual diagnosis" as a marketing category but not a clinical differentiator. Ask for the specific clinical-team credentials and the actual hours of specialty-specific content per week.

Before you call

The three questions that consistently separate programs worth considering from programs worth skipping: ASAM level of care match; written VOB for your plan; MAT policy. If the clinical situation involves opioid use disorder, confirm explicitly whether DUI and Addiction Counseling Center offers medication-assisted treatment — buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone. Programs that do not are operating outside the current standard of care. Programs that cannot answer all three quickly are programs worth approaching with caution.
