Groups delivers a proven, evidence-based model of Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), considered the gold standard for the treatment of opiate use disorder by the American Society for Addiction Medicine (ASAM) and Substance Abuse and Mental Health Association (SAMHSA). We empower our members to regain control of their lives through a combination of therapy and medication. Outpatient weekly group therapy delivered by licensed counselors - in a respectful and welcoming environment - encourages members to form community, which is essential for success in recovery. FDA-approved medication retrains the brain to function without opioids. Free from withdrawal, members can work, take care of family, and be part of community. We prescribe buprenorphine/naloxone (also known as Suboxone) and naltrexone.

Real recovery requires support from healthcare providers, family members, and peers. Unfortunately, relapse risk after treatment is high – the relapse rate is estimated between 40 – 60%. CHESS Health provides evidence-based support programs that function as a safety net for individuals in recovery – particularly during the hours, days, and weeks that stressors and risks are most likely to surface – and when individuals are not in front of their healthcare treatment provider. The CHESS Connections app, which supports individuals in building healthy habits, reducing isolation, and celebrating achievements, is the foundation of a robust virtual community. CHESS Health’s certified peer recovery specialists, who have lived experience in SUD, moderate lively discussion groups and host video support meetings, creating meaningful engagement and dialogue around the issues that matter most – and support individuals 24/7. The platform even includes digital behavior change programs, allowing individuals to access bite-sized training on an as-needed basis.

CHESS Health creates innovative solutions designed at the intersection of science, technology, and recovery. Founded in 2014 by nationally recognized substance abuse researcher Dr. Dave Gustafson, CHESS developed A-CHESS- the leading evidence-based relapse prevention technology. By integrating A-CHESS into treatment plans, clinicians, case managers and coaches can best support those in recovery with access to predictive relapse analytics, condition-specific content and access to live support, reducing relapse by 50 percent while decreasing costs and saving lives. A leader in the mHealth space, the A-CHESS platform received recognition from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP), the Journal of Substance Abuse and the Surgeon General.

Our eRecovery solution, encompassing our evidence-based Connections App, provides individuals with 24/7 support to sustain and strengthen their recovery between outpatient visits. Clinical trials and customer implementations have found that individuals with the app were more likely to make their next appointment and stay in treatment. Their long-term outcomes are better too; health plans and others have measured lower rates of return to a higher level of care (detox, residential, inpatient) among those with the support of the app.
