About

About Virginia Hospital Center

Virginia Hospital Center is a hospital program located at 1701 North George Mason Drive in Arlington, Virginia, offering medical detox and residential treatment for addiction. Operating within a full hospital setting distinguishes this facility from freestanding detox centers — patients have access to hospital-level resources around the clock, every day of the week. The program serves Arlington, VA and is reachable at (703) 558-6755 for same-day intake inquiries.

The facility provides two levels of care confirmed for people seeking addiction treatment: medical detox and residential treatment. Medical detox at a hospital program means withdrawal is managed within a clinical environment with 24/7 availability, a significant consideration for individuals whose withdrawal may require close medical oversight. Following detox, residential treatment allows patients to continue structured care without returning home prematurely.

Treatment at Virginia Hospital Center addresses co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis, meaning individuals dealing with both addiction and a mental health condition can receive integrated care under one roof. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is among the therapeutic methods used within the program. This dual-diagnosis capability is a practical differentiator for patients whose substance use is entangled with depression, anxiety, trauma, or other psychiatric conditions.

The program is equipped to serve individuals who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing, and services are provided in English. On the financial side, Virginia Hospital Center accepts a broad range of payment options — Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay — making the program accessible to a wider range of patients than many private detox facilities. Those ready to take the next step can contact the facility directly or reach the patient experience team at patientexperience@vhchealth.org.

  • Hospital-based medical detox with 24/7 availability — not a freestanding clinic, but a full hospital program
  • Dual diagnosis treatment for co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders
  • Residential treatment available as a direct step-down from inpatient detox within the same program
  • Accessible to Deaf and Hard of Hearing individuals
  • Broad payment coverage including Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, state insurance, private insurance, and self-pay

Medical Detox at a Hospital Program in Arlington, VA

Virginia Hospital Center's addiction program provides medical detox within a hospital setting — a meaningful distinction for individuals who need withdrawal management with immediate access to clinical resources. Unlike standalone detox centers, a hospital program operates with the infrastructure of an acute care facility, available 24 hours a day, every day of the week.

For people in the Arlington, VA area who are weighing their options for medically supervised detox, the hospital-based model offers a level of clinical readiness that freestanding facilities may not match. The program can be reached directly at (703) 558-6755 for those making same-day decisions about care.

Residential Treatment and Dual Diagnosis Care

Beyond medical detox, Virginia Hospital Center offers residential treatment — allowing patients to continue intensive, structured care after the acute withdrawal phase without an abrupt transition out of the clinical environment. This continuity can be critical for individuals whose recovery is complicated by underlying psychiatric conditions.

The program explicitly treats co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as part of its therapeutic approach. For patients whose substance use intersects with mental health challenges, an integrated program addresses both conditions simultaneously rather than treating them in isolation.

Insurance and Payment Options

Virginia Hospital Center accepts a wide range of payment methods for its detox and residential treatment programs. Confirmed accepted payment types include Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay or cash. This breadth of coverage makes the hospital program reachable for patients across different financial situations, including veterans using TRICARE and individuals on government-sponsored health plans.

To discuss insurance coverage or payment arrangements, prospective patients and family members can contact the facility at (703) 558-6755 or email patientexperience@vhchealth.org. The program is available around the clock to take inquiries.

Who Virginia Hospital Center Serves

The addiction program at Virginia Hospital Center is designed to serve adults in the Arlington, VA area seeking inpatient detox or residential treatment.
