Odyssey boasts the largest continuum of care for individuals to access at any level of need, with robust support programming.

With this authorization, the bed capacity limit is lifted allowing more treatment centers the ability to provide care to Medicaid members with substance use disorders. Historically, substance abuse treatment through Medicaid was limited to facilities with 16 beds or fewer. These rules created a critical gap in Medicaid’s continuum of care. Previously, Medicaid coverage in these treatment facilities was blocked by federal Medicaid rules. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has authorized the Utah Department of Health (UDOH) to use federal Medicaid funds to cover individuals receiving residential treatment as part of their care for substance use disorders.
