About Charlie Health IOP
Charlie Health runs a virtual intensive outpatient program (IOP), a level of care between weekly outpatient therapy and residential or inpatient treatment. Its site describes 10+ hours of care a week, typically across three days, made up of three group sessions, one individual session and one family session a week, with medication management if needed; programs typically last 6 to 12 weeks. It serves ages 8 to 64 (substance use care from 13) in about 40 states and works with 600+ insurance plans, plus Medicaid in some states. It publishes no self-pay rate. Charlie Health staff have published several uncontrolled quality-improvement analyses of their own patients in JMIR Formative Research; there are no randomized trials of the program.
