Admissions
The team at RiverWoods Behavioral Health System strives to make the referral process as smooth and pleasant as possible to ensure that we are the provider of choice for our referral sources, families, and patients as they transition into our treatment programs.
For patients seeking admission to any of our programs, simply contact our Intake/Admissions team 7 days a week, 24 hours a day by calling our main number at 770-991-8500. Our staff will be able to answer any questions that you may have and assist you in deciding on the best treatment option based upon your personal needs. Potential patients are able to obtain a free and confidential assessment with one of our mental health professionals by scheduling an appointment at any time or simply walking into the facility. After our staff has helped you decide the best treatment option for you, we will go the extra mile to verify your insurance benefits to assure that you are covered for services under your current plan. RiverWoods BHS currently accepts almost all private insurance plans, all managed care Medicaid, Medicare, and Medicare replacement plans. If your plan does not list RiverWoods Behavioral Health System as a provider but you would like to enter into our services, we are able to work with your provider to offer very reasonable out of network rates and single case agreements.
RiverWoods Behavioral Health System also accepts direct admissions from a variety of referral sources in the community. Our Intake staff is standing by around the clock to pre-screen the direct admissions, consult with our physicians, verify the insurance benefits for you; and, as needed, arrange for transport for inpatient admissions at no additional cost to the patient.
Once the appropriate level of care is determined we will begin the treatment process immediately. We are here to meet your needs, so please feel free to contact our knowledgeable staff with any questions or concerns.
