Voted Best Drug and Alcohol Rehab in Columbus, Ohio
by NewsweekOhio Addiction Recovery Center
Personalized Treatment. Recovery Driven.
Judgment-Free Drug & Alcohol Rehab With Medical Detox
Ohio Addiction Recovery Center opened its doors with a simple mission: to build a nationally recognized & accessible addiction treatment center in Ohio, so individuals and families could get the help they need close to home. We saw neighbors, friends, and loved ones opt for out-of-state care to seek recovery. We wanted to change that. More than a decade later, OARC has helped thousands of clients and families find recovery from substance use disorder. We’re also extremely proud to have been ranked the #1 addiction treatment center in Ohio by Newsweek for 4 years running.
What makes OARC special? Our individualized, evidence-based clinical philosophy rejects the “one-size-fits-all” approach to recovery. Through psychiatry, life skills, and a positivity-focused community, we treat the underlying causes of addiction and support our clients on their personal road to recovery.

OARC changed my life. Starting with kiera who was apart of intake , calling with me daily and supporting me, and setting me up immediately when I NEEDED to get in. … read more I was blessed she was able to find a bed in the manner when she did. When I arrived they had already had ordered me a dinner waiting from the catering company. The food during my stay was plentiful and I enjoyed all the meals they provided from the company, the snacks, the pizza, and vending machines.
The counselors were awesome and cared so much and were super smart with all the behavioral counseling approaches they gave. OARC saved my life and expidited my recovery, and expidited the recovery of my anxiety issue and clinical depression I developed from a crisis I was dealing with in life. Since my stay, I have returned to work, and in the 6 week stay I have overcome problems that probably would have taken a year or two plus turmoil if I were to try to handle on my own in the real world. Oarc did a great job finding me the right medication and administering and adjusting such meds during this adjustment period I had. I made such close friendships and relationships with everyone there including the counselors and techs. I miss this place tons and I really recommend oarc to anyone going through a crisis, who is really looking to give treatment a full go.

Pricing: How Much Does Rehab Cost? Insurance Could Cover 100%
Drug or alcohol rehab in Columbus can cost thousands of dollars without insurance. Fortunately, all insurance plans are required to cover addiction treatment as an essential health benefit, thanks to the Affordable Care Act. That means your insurance plan will cover at least a portion of your addiction treatment. We’re proud to be in-network with most insurance plans, so out-of-pocket costs will be kept to a minimum compared to out-of-network facilities. To speak with an advisor or verify insurance benefits, call our hotline at 800-487-8457.
