BrightView Purchases Virginia SUD Treatment Provider Right Path

Addiction treatment provider BrightView Health is deepening its footprint in Virginia with the acquisition of Virginia Beach-based Right Path Addiction Treatment Centers.

Right Path operates five clinics in eastern Virginia, which are located in Richmond, Chesapeake, Newport News, Suffolk and its homebase of Virginia Beach. The provider offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) drugs such as buprenorphine and naltrexone to treat substance use disorders (SUDs) like opioid and alcohol addiction, and are provided in conjunction with other services including psychotherapy.

Right Path accepts a number of commercial insurances as well as Medicaid, Medicare and Tricare, which is the U.S. Department of Defense’s payer plan for active and retired military personnel.

“We understand the importance of evidence-based treatment, and we are committed to ensuring a smooth transition for each patient, staff member, and community partner,” Jackson added in the release. “The team at BrightView is looking forward to bringing our expertise and leadership in the field to the communities Right Path serves.”
