Expert insight
“And her care doesn’t stop there, patients are monitored for over six months and she is observing good success rates - higher than other treatment programs.”
I recently learned about a program at the Medical University of South Carolina that may very well be saving lives.
ED doctor Allison Smith, hated seeing addiction take over patients’ lives when they’d arrive at the hospital in a critical condition. Instead of judging patients and discharging them, which happens at a lot of EDs, Dr Smith has developed a program to find treatment for coming to the ED with signs of substance use disorder. So far, her team, which includes a peer recovery coach and care coordinator, has treated over 70 patients with medication.
I think it's a brilliant idea, not only that Dr. Smith is using evidence-based treatments that are now the gold standard for opioid use disorder, but she truly cares for patients rather than turning them away, while they get stuck in the system waiting for treatment.
Frequently asked questions
We review each of the rehab centers on this page. Each is drawn from our directory and is reviewed before it's published. Our team checks for appropriate South Carolina licensure, confirms the level of care, specialty programs and payment options.
We check for different types of insurance, Medicaid, Medicare and sliding scale or financial assistance options. We cross check accreditation claims when the status is available, such as Joint Commission or CARF. Our listings are not ranked by paid placements.
Charleston, South Carolina is at the heart of Charleston County and the Lowcountry region. The area stretches from North Charleston and Mount Pleasant to West Ashley and James Island.
Our South Carolina rehab directory lists 14 treatment providers that provide addiction treatment services to the Charleston area. Treatment can range from medical detox units to outpatient clinics built around your work and school schedules.
The Charleston Center is the county's designated behavioral health and addiction treatment authority under the state Department of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services. They administer Charleston County's public substance use services.
Wake Up Carolina is a local group that also works with first responders to distribute naloxone and connect overdose survivors with follow-up care.
Overdose deaths in Charleston County fell from 255 in 2023 to 178 in 2024. The county's overdose death rate rose the year before as the overall state numbers dropped.
That movement is part of why addiction treatment options here span short medical detox stays through longer residential and outpatient care.
Rehab costs in Charleston depend on the level of care you receive, your length of stay, and whether the program accepts your insurance. Detox and residential inpatient care cost more per day than outpatient care because you have round-the-clock staffing, housing, and meals included in your care.
Charleston's cost of living is driven up by tourism and coastal housing. This can drive private pay rates higher. Verifying your insurance benefits before admission is the best way to learn a facility's cost and your potential out of pocket expenses.
Paying for addiction treatment can feel overwhelming. Federal and state parity laws mandate that most private insurance plans cover treatment for substance use disorders and mental health conditions.
Most of the 14 rehab facilities listed for Charleston accept more than one form of payment. Six facilities take self pay or cash, six take private insurance, and a smaller number work with Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE or financial assistance.
Two facilities in Charleston accept Medicare. This can help cover medically necessary detox and inpatient stays for individuals who are 65 and older. A physician must certify medical necessity for care.
However, prior authorization rules vary by plan, so you must confirm your insurance benefits with a facility's admissions team before you begin treatment.
Healthy Connections is South Carolina's Medicaid program. Three facilities accept Healthy Connections to help cover substance use disorder services for eligible residents. This can include some medication assisted treatment for opioid use disorder. Covered services vary based on your managed care plan.
Three facilities in the Charleston area accept TRICARE. This is military insurance for active duty personnel, families and veterans. This is relevant in a region home to Joint Base Charleston and a sizable veteran and active-duty population. Coverage typically requires a facility authorized by TRICARE and precertification for inpatient care.
Six facilities accept private insurance and six accept self pay or cash. This gives you access to treatment without in-network coverage. Private-pay rates are sometimes negotiable and tied to your level of care and the length of your stay.
Two facilities in Charleston offer financial assistance based on income or circumstance. Rehab scholarships are worth exploring before ruling out treatment based on cost when you can't find an affordable option.
The14 listed facilities in Charleston include 4 detox programs, 13 inpatient programs, 6 outpatient clinics, 1 partial hospitalization program, and 3 dual diagnosis programs.
Medical detox programs help manage your withdrawal safely under medical supervision. This is often the first step for people dependent on alcohol, opioids or benzodiazepines. Your next step in treatment may be inpatient rehab. This level of care provides 24 hour residential care. This is Charleston's most common level of care.
Partial hospitalization offers an intensive day treatment step down program without an overnight stay. Traditional outpatient rehab lets you keep working or attending school while in therapy.
Dual diagnosis care is specialized treatment that addresses substance use disorder at the same time as mental health conditions like depression or anxiety at the same time.
Several facilities in the Charleston area run programs built around a specific population or substance.
The LGBTQ+ friendly program offers LGBTQ+ affirming addiction care for people who want an environment that focuses on identity related trauma. The veterans and military program serves families connected to Joint Base Charleston and the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center.
Young adult programs reflect Charleston's large college age population tied to the College of Charleston and The Citadel. Alcohol specific programs are the largest specialty category and focus on alcohol use disorder treatment.
People who need help now, or cannot afford private treatment, have several no cost options in and around Charleston.
If thoughts of self-harm are part of what you or a loved one are facing, the suicide prevention resources above are available around the clock.

Of Charleston County's drug-related deaths occurred in North Charleston, the largest single share - Charleston County Coroner's Office, 2025.
