Open & Build

Open a center that's built to last.

From feasibility to first admit — the strategy, financials, and licensing readiness to open with confidence.

What's included

From feasibility to first admit.

Feasibility study & market analysis

We map demand, competition, payer mix, and the economics of your market before a dollar is committed.

Financial proforma (5-year)

A defensible model — census ramp, staffing, reimbursement, and capital — that holds up with lenders and partners.

A soft-focus financial workspace with a calculator and unmarked charts in warm light.

Business plan & roadmap

A clear operating plan and milestone roadmap that turns the vision into a sequenced build.

An architect's blueprint and scale model on a warm table.

Program & level-of-care design

Clinical programming and level-of-care design (detox, PHP, IOP) aligned to ASAM criteria and your market.

A bright, calm clinical-but-human therapy room with warm wood and soft textiles.

Licensing & accreditation readiness

We prepare you for the standards you'll be measured against — DHCS, CARF, and Joint Commission readiness.

The Ascent Method™

How a launch comes together.

01

Basecamp

Discovery & audit

We get the lay of the land — market, economics, and how your program performs today.

02

Route

Strategy & plan

We chart the path — positioning, program or growth plan, and the budget to get there.

03

Climb

Launch & execute

We do the work — build and license-readiness, or campaign launch and admissions enablement.

04

Summit

Scale & sustain

We hold the gains — expand what works and build the muscle to sustain it without us.

FAQ

Opening questions.

Yes. A lot of our Open & Build work begins before a license exists — feasibility, proforma, program design, and getting you ready for DHCS, CARF, and Joint Commission review.
