How These Rankings Work

The rankings are based on the Rehab Score that we calculate on a combination of patient reviews, accreditation and licensing, how complete and specific a center’s program information is, and reputation signals such as business history and staffing.

A center must list substance use treatment and at least one clinical level of care, show a physical address, and be open to the general public to qualify for this list. We rank only one location per organization no matter how many locations they have.

Our editors screen every ranked center, and its parent company and affiliates, for license actions, patient-safety lawsuits and settlements, government fraud cases and credible investigations before the list is published. We remove centers that no longer qualify.

Programs for young people are included only when they treat substance use disorder. No center can pay for placement. We update these rankings every quarter, and our scoring methodology page explains each input in detail.
