About Aegis Treatment Centers LLC
Aegis Treatment Centers’ Modesto clinic operates from 1235 McHenry Avenue, Suites A and B, on a busy commercial corridor in Modesto, California, the county seat of Stanislaus County. The clinic is one of more than two dozen Aegis sites across California operated by Pinnacle Treatment Centers, a national addiction-treatment organization. SAMHSA certifies the site as an Opioid Treatment Program (OTP), the federal designation required to dispense methadone for opioid use disorder.
Modesto sits at the geographic heart of California’s Central Valley, in a region that has been heavily affected by the opioid epidemic. The OTP model — daily methadone dosing combined with required counseling, urine drug monitoring and case management — is built for the working-age population that makes up most of Stanislaus County’s opioid-treatment caseload. Patients can dose in the morning before work, attend counseling on a fixed schedule, and continue building stable employment and family routines while still receiving evidence-based medication for addiction.
Clinical work at the clinic is anchored by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and motivational interviewing, with both individual and group counseling sessions in the standard schedule. CARF accreditation under the Pinnacle organization signals adherence to published clinical and operational standards. Pregnant women with opioid use disorder are a SAMHSA-identified specialty population at the Modesto clinic; coordinating methadone treatment with prenatal care is a well-established standard for this population, and the clinic’s pregnancy-aware protocols matter for both maternal and newborn outcomes.
Payment options reflect the Central Valley’s reliance on public funding for addiction care. Medi-Cal (California Medicaid), Medicare, commercial private insurance, TRICARE, state insurance plans and self-pay are accepted. Pinnacle’s published California payer table specifically lists Optum / VA Community Care for veteran referrals. For commercial carriers beyond that, the clinic’s admissions team can verify in-network status against a given patient’s plan; carrier participation varies by clinic and is not the same across Pinnacle’s other states.
