Our Referral Process
Referring a client to Lifeskills is straightforward. Our admissions team guides you through every step — connect, assess, and admit with confidence.
Make a Referral
To begin, contact your professional outreach representative, call our admissions team directly, or complete our referral form. We’ll gather the necessary clinical information during the initial call and address any questions before moving into pre-admission assessments.
Pre-Admission
During pre-admission, our team works closely with you to gather clinical details and determine the appropriate level of care. We’ll also review financial options and conduct a benefit assessment for your client at this stage.
Admission
Once admitted, we notify you when your client has safely arrived and begun the intake process. We provide regular clinical updates throughout their stay, ensuring you have the information needed to plan for follow-up care.
Our Communication Promise
Strong communication with referring professionals is essential for clinical continuity and client outcomes. Our professional outreach teams are committed to clear, consistent communication at every stage of treatment — with every client, every day.
During Pre-Admission
We provide the clinical information you need before treatment begins, including level of care determination and benefit assessment.
Throughout Treatment
Regular clinical updates throughout treatment keep you informed and support continuity of care planning.
During Aftercare Planning
We collaborate with you on aftercare planning to support a well-coordinated transition back into your care.
Payment Options
Lifeskills is primarily a private-pay practice and works with out-of-network benefits. Select locations work with in-network providers. Our admissions team works directly with clients and their families to review financial options and conduct benefit assessments. We also provide concierge-level support to guide clients through the complexities of the healthcare system.
