For thirty years since
its founding in 1978, the National Association of Addiction
Treatment Providers (NAATP), which represents nearly 275 not-for-profit
and for-profit providers (free standing and hospital based programs,
which offer a full continuum of care from outpatient, partial
hospitalization and inpatient rehabilitation regimes), has acted
as the voice of private alcoholism and drug dependency treatment
programs throughout the U.S. That voice has been heard time
and time again in Congress, in the insurance industry,
in the utilization review arena and in the chemical dependency
treatment field itself.
NAATP has assumed a strong leadership role on behalf of treatment
providers in areas such as treatment standards, education, research,
and advocacy of legislative, regulatory and reimbursement positions
supported by the field.
