What makes BHG different as a referral partner?
In this video, Dr. Ben Nordstrom explains how BHG serves as a reliable referral partner for hospitals, emergency departments, criminal justice agencies and community providers. Our approach delivers rapid access, evidence-based care and coordinated support for patients with opioid use disorder.
Opioid Use Disorder Referral Partner: What Makes BHG Different
When choosing an opioid use disorder referral partner, healthcare and community leaders need more than a treatment provider — they need a trusted extension of their care continuum.
Why Choosing the Right Opioid Use Disorder Referral Partner Matters
Referral partners today face increasing pressure:
- Emergency departments managing repeat overdose visits
- Hospitals focused on reducing readmissions and length of stay
- Jails and courts working to lower recidivism
- Community providers supporting high-acuity, complex patients
Without a reliable opioid use disorder referral partner, patients often leave acute settings without a clear, immediate path to evidence-based treatment — increasing the risk of relapse, overdose and system strain. BHG helps close that gap.
How BHG Supports Referral Partners
As an experienced opioid use disorder referral partner, BHG prioritizes speed, coordination and accountability.
Our approach includes:
- Rapid access to care, often same-day or next-day admissions
- Evidence-based treatment, including medication for addiction treatment
- Streamlined referral processes that reduce administrative burden
- Proactive communication and care coordination
- Long-term engagement models focused on sustained stability
We work collaboratively with our partners to ensure patients transition safely from discharge or release into structured outpatient care.

BHG does not operate in isolation. As an opioid use disorder referral partner, we align with your clinical, operational and population health goals. Our team communicates clearly, shares accountability for outcomes and supports continuity of care beyond the initial referral.
