About

About Behavioral Health Services American Recovery Center

American Recovery Center is the Palmdale, California outpatient location operated by American Health Services LLC and its affiliated El Dorado Community Service Centers (ECSC), a network of community clinics that has served Southern California since 1983. The Palmdale clinic at 2720 E. Palmdale Boulevard, Suite 129, sits inside a larger system spanning more than a dozen California cities, including Azusa, Bakersfield, Inglewood, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Pico Rivera, Van Nuys, and Venice in Southern California, plus Marysville, Oakland, and San Francisco in the north.

Clinically, the program is structured as a community clinic that delivers co-located medical and substance use treatment. American Health Services holds SAMHSA certification as an Opioid Treatment Program (OTP), which authorizes the use of medications such as methadone for opioid use disorder under federal regulations. The integrated model means patients can address physical health, psychiatric, and addiction concerns within the same network rather than navigating separate providers.

American Health Services emphasizes accessibility through its payor mix. The organization accepts Medicare and Medi-Cal, offers a sliding scale, and operates payment plans for clients who need flexibility. Electronic Health Records support continuity of care across its multiple locations and Independent Practice Association (IPA) contracts with government programs.

The organization is accredited by the Council on Accreditation (COA), which sets standards for community-based behavioral health services. The corporate headquarters at the parent organization handles billing, compliance, and grievances, while clinical teams at each location, including Palmdale, manage day-to-day patient care. Individuals interested in services can contact the Palmdale location directly at (661) 947-3333.
