\nNational expansion driven by Pinnacle\u2019s commitment to provide affordable, accessible addiction treatment for underserved communities<\/i><\/b>\n<\/p>\n

MOUNT LAUREL, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#Medicaid<\/a>—Pinnacle Treatment Centers<\/a>, a leading provider of community-based drug and alcohol addiction treatment services, announced today it has acquired MBA Wellness Center in Stockbridge, Georgia.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nFounded in 2010, MBA Wellness Center is a privately-owned, outpatient opioid addiction treatment program located approximately 20 miles south of Atlanta in Eagle\u2019s Point Professional Building at 1233 Eagles Landing Parkway. The center serves more than 130 patients daily.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cMBA Wellness provides exceptional service and compassionate care. The team is not only mission-driven and dedicated but expert at treating opioid addiction,\u201d said Joe Pritchard,<\/a> CEO of Pinnacle and an individual in addiction recovery for 47 years. \u201cDrug overdose deaths continue to increase across the country and in the state of Georgia, and affordable, accessible treatment is needed now more than ever. We\u2019re privileged to join the community of Stockbridge, continue the good work that\u2019s been done there over the years, and restore more lives.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nPinnacle entered the Peach State in August 2020 when it purchased HealthQwest<\/a>, an opioid addiction treatment provider with five locations. MBA Wellness Center will take the HealthQwest name, and together, the six centers<\/a> will help more than 1,300 patients every day overcome opioid use disorder.\n<\/p>\n

\nThis is Pinnacle\u2019s second acquisition in six months. In June 2022, Pinnacle moved into its ninth state by adding Stepping Stone of North Carolina<\/a> to its network of care.\n<\/p>\n

\nThis acquisition increases Pinnacle\u2019s reach in treating those suffering from substance use disorder and advances its mission of making recovery possible for anyone who needs it.\n<\/p>\n

\nProvisional data from CDC\u2019s National Center for Health Statistics<\/a> indicate there were an estimated 107,622 drug overdose deaths in the United States during 2021, an increase of nearly 15% from the 93,655 deaths estimated in 2020. The state of Georgia, specifically, saw a 22 percent increase in overdose deaths from February 2021 through February 2022<\/a>, with fentanyl mostly to blame.\n<\/p>\n

\nAccording to an Atlanta news outlet, the Georgia Department of Public Health found between May 1, 2020 and April 30, 2021, overdose deaths involving fentanyl jumped by 106.2 percent, compared to the same time period the previous year.\n<\/p>\n

\nThrough medication-assisted treatment (MAT), MBA Wellness, now HealthQwest, provides evidenced-based medications\u2014methadone and buprenorphine\u2014in coordination with long-term counseling to help individuals overcome the disease of addiction to opioids and achieve sustained health and wellness.\n<\/p>\n

\nMAT<\/a> is considered to be the gold standard of treatment for opioid use disorder. Methadone and buprenorphine curb withdrawal symptoms from heroin and opioid addiction; prevent relapse; and quell the physical discomfort that frequently accompanies recovery from opioid abuse.\n<\/p>\n

\nLike other Pinnacle programs, HealthQwest accepts Medicaid and Medicare, and offers reasonable self-pay rates. Anyone seeking addiction help can call Pinnacle\u2019s 24\/7 Access Center at 800-782-1520. The HealthQwest clinic in Stockbridge (formerly MBA Wellness Center) can be reached at 770-474-4009.\n<\/p>\n

\nPinnacle continues to expand through de novo centers and acquisitions. Anyone interested in potential partnerships can contact Amber Philpot, Vice President of Corporate Development and Strategy, at amber.philpot@pinnacletreatment.com<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

\nHeadquartered in New Jersey, Pinnacle Treatment Centers is a recognized leader in comprehensive substance use disorder treatment serving more than 35,000 patients daily in California, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.
