About

About MedStar Montgomery Medical Center Addiction and Mental Health Center

MedStar Montgomery Medical Center Addiction and Mental Health Center is a Joint Commission-accredited substance use treatment facility located at 18101 Prince Phillip Drive in Olney, Maryland, within Montgomery County. Part of the MedStar Health network, it provides a medically supervised setting for adults, adolescents, seniors, and individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing who are seeking structured addiction and mental health care. The center operates around the clock, every day of the week, making it accessible for same-day admission inquiries.

The facility offers a full continuum of care that begins with medical detox — the highest-acuity level available on-site — for individuals who require supervised withdrawal management. Following detox, patients can step down into residential treatment for continued 24-hour support, or transition to a standard outpatient program or an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for those who need structured treatment while maintaining outside responsibilities. This range of levels means a patient can progress through multiple stages of care within the same system.

Clinically, the center treats co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis, recognizing that mental health conditions and substance use disorders frequently present together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a confirmed therapeutic method used within the program. Care is delivered in English, and the facility is specifically equipped to serve individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing.

MedStar Montgomery’s Addiction and Mental Health Center accepts a broad range of payment options — Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay — reducing financial barriers for those seeking medically supervised detox or ongoing treatment in the Olney, MD area. Populations served include adolescents, seniors, and women, in addition to the general adult population, making this one of the more inclusive addiction treatment settings in Montgomery County.

Medical Detox and Withdrawal Management in Olney, MD

MedStar Montgomery Medical Center Addiction and Mental Health Center provides medical detox as the entry point for individuals who cannot safely stop substance use without clinical supervision. The program operates 24 hours a day, every day of the week, which matters when withdrawal symptoms do not follow a schedule. Being part of the MedStar Health system positions this facility to deliver medically supervised detox within an accredited hospital environment.

After completing withdrawal management, patients have direct pathways into residential treatment or step down to an outpatient or Intensive Outpatient Program — eliminating the gap that often leads to relapse during transitions between levels of care. For anyone in Montgomery County weighing same-day detox options, the 24/7 operating schedule and broad insurance acceptance, including Medicaid and Medicare, are practical advantages worth noting.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment: Addressing Addiction and Mental Health Together

The center explicitly treats co-occurring disorders, meaning patients dealing with both a substance use disorder and a mental health condition are not required to address one before the other. This dual diagnosis approach is integrated across the facility's levels of care, from medical detox through outpatient programming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is among the confirmed therapeutic methods used within the program.

Co-occurring conditions are common among people seeking detox and addiction treatment, and facilities without dual diagnosis capability often refer patients elsewhere for mental health care. MedStar Montgomery handles both within the same treatment setting, which reduces the coordination burden on patients and families navigating care for the first time.

Who MedStar Montgomery's Addiction Center Serves

The facility serves a broader range of populations than many standalone detox centers. Confirmed groups include adolescents, seniors and older adults, women, and individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. This breadth reflects infrastructure built around diverse clinical needs rather than a single demographic.

For families in Olney and greater Montgomery County, the ability to find age-appropriate or population-specific addiction care locally — without traveling to a metro center — is a meaningful consideration. The facility accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay, covering the majority of how Montgomery County residents are likely to be insured.

Insurance and Payment Options for Detox and Treatment

Cost and coverage are often the deciding factor when a family is choosing between detox programs. MedStar Montgomery accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay or cash, which covers a wide range of financial situations. Prospective patients or their families should contact the facility directly at (301) 774-8603 to confirm coverage for a specific plan before admission.

The combination of Joint Commission accreditation and hospital-network affiliation means this facility meets the clinical standards most major insurers require for inpatient detox and residential treatment reimbursement. That accreditation status, held through JCAHO, also signals a baseline of quality oversight that independent detox centers are not always required to meet.
