Eleanor Health (Eleanor); an outpatient addiction treatment provider working to transform the quality, delivery and accessibility of substance use disorder care; today announced it has expanded into Florida. Eleanor’s care is now available virtually across the state.

Eleanor provides whole-person, evidence-based care to adults seeking help for substance use disorders (SUDs), including opioid, alcohol and stimulant use disorders such as methamphetamine. Eleanor’s approach integrates medications for addiction treatment (MAT), psychotherapy and peer support to assist individuals with their recovery journey.

“Florida recently implemented successful measures to decrease drug overdose rates, and like many states, there is great motivation to address the addiction crisis head on,” said William McKinney, CEO of Eleanor Health. “That’s why we’re excited to offer Eleanor’s evidence-based care model to Floridians, which provides members with comprehensive treatment and support on their recovery journey. Our goal is to provide stigma-free care that empowers members every step of the way.”

Recovery at Eleanor begins with a free call to discuss a potential member’s health concerns, barriers to care and insurance coverage. If it’s a good fit, the first appointment is scheduled, often within two days or sooner. At the initial appointment, members meet with a physician or nurse practitioner to assess symptoms and begin collaborative care planning to define treatment goals. The initial medical appointment is followed by a comprehensive intake process that includes meeting with a licensed therapist and certified peer support specialist. Depending on the member’s needs and preferences, the care journey includes a combination of medications for addiction and other psychiatric health conditions, individual and/or group therapy, peer coaching, health coaching and care coordination.

Eleanor takes a harm-reduction approach to addiction treatment by supporting individuals through all phases of substance use disorder—active use, early remission, and sustained remission. With a focus on autonomy and long-term care, the no-wrong-door policy ensures members are not turned away or penalized for illness relapse.

Individuals interested in seeking treatment may complete the insurance verification form or call 866-465-0590 for more information. To refer a patient to Eleanor, healthcare providers may complete this form or call 877-759-5021 to connect with the referral team.
