Combined with 16.5% of the population suffering from a substance use disorder, a $50B+ market has emerged. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Treatment are rapidly growing in every state.
Furthermore, Some of the things to consider when looking for to open a rehab are:
- Business Planning: Does the organization understand the complexities of opening a facility? And the challenges associated with the first 3-5 years of operations?
- Population Density: The location must have enough people to sustain the organization.
- Competition: The facility should be set up in an area that does not have a significant amount of competition.
- Insurance Relationships: Does the organization understand the payor situation and revenue generation processes.
Furthermore, there are many areas of the United States that are lacking in access to care. With that said, many of the areas that have high population density are already saturated.
