About

About University of Maryland Medical Center

The University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC) operates its Addiction Treatment Programs at 1001 West Pratt Street in Baltimore, part of the broader University of Maryland Medical System (UMMS) academic medical center. The program is affiliated with the University of Maryland School of Medicine and the University of Maryland Center for Addiction Medicine, bringing academic research, training, and clinical practice into a unified setting.

Services include medical detoxification, an Opioid Treatment Program with medication-assisted treatment, and outpatient addiction services. The clinical approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with MAT, addiction medicine consultation, and integrated medical-behavioral health care delivered alongside UMMS’s broader medical resources. This integration is meaningful: patients with substance use disorders often have other chronic medical conditions, and care delivered in an academic medical center setting can manage both together. The program is CARF accredited for behavioral health and NCQA recognized — a combination that signals dual accountability to substance use and broader quality standards.

UMMC’s addiction services are linked to MACS — the Maryland Addiction Consultation Service — which provides consultation to other Maryland providers on substance use disorder treatment, expanding the program’s impact beyond direct patient care. As part of UMMS’s mission to provide Marylanders ‘a better state of care,’ the program emphasizes high-reliability principles, evidence-based clinical care, and equitable access regardless of insurance status.

The program accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay, with financial assistance available. Patients with deaf or hard-of-hearing needs are accommodated. To inquire about the addiction treatment programs at 1001 West Pratt Street, call (443) 462-3401; UMMS’s main directory is also accessible online at umms.org.
