Substance Use Disorder Clinical Care (SUDCC)
Services:
The Army's Substance Use Disorder Clinical Care (SUDCC) program uses a multidisciplinary approach to treat and provide patients the resources and support they need to overcome the challenges of illicit drug use, prescription medicine and alcohol abuse or dependence.
Access to care:
The primary mission of the Stuttgart SUDCC clinic is to treat Active Duty military members. At times access to care is also available for Retirees, Military Family Members, GS Civilians and Contractors on a space available basis. Decisions about opening access to the clinic for non-Active Duty patients are based on the clinic’s ability to meet the MEDCOM access to care standards of 7 days for any new intake as well as regular follow up appointments. The inability to meet the access to care standard means that we may be unable to take care of non-Active Duty patients. However, if the standard can be met our next priority are Active Duty Retirees and their family members, then DA Civilians and Contractors, as space permits. Our goal is to provide quality Behavioral Health care which depends on our ability to meet the time demands of treatment.
For those not eligible for care in this clinic, there are other resources are available. All civilians interested in recovering from substance abuse issues should begin by contacting the EAP (Employee Assistance Program) at (314) 431-2530 or Civ: 07031-15-2530. Where you will be provided updates on availability and other helpful information.
