Serving Business

Employee Referrals: ADS accepts referrals from Piedmont Triad area business and industry needing to place employees into treatment. If you request it, ADS can keep you informed about an employee's recommended treatment plan, counseling schedule, treatment progress, discharge plan, and recommended follow-up services. ADS can monitor your employee's progress and report back to a supervisor or HR representative.

• Treatment costs can be covered by the employee's insurance. In instances where the employee does not have insurance, or the insurance does not cover substance abuse treatment, ADS can bill the employee at a reduced rate based on family size and family income, and he/she will receive a convenient payment plan.
