When should you pick Digital Admits?
You want an agency that runs SEO and paid search and can also help rebuild your call center, on month-to-month terms. Digital Admits lists call center consulting and reputation management as services and publishes admit counts in its case studies (source).
Digital Admits strengths:
- Month-to-month services
- Call center consulting and setup alongside SEO and PPC
- Says it targets VOBs for "your preferred insurance payors"
- Case studies with admit counts, such as Zoe Recovery: "168 admits delivered" and "a $6,253 reduction in cost per admit"
- Reports "10,000+ admission placements" (its figure)
Where Digital Admits may not fit:
- You want a quote for web design, call center or reputation work before a call. Those services show no published price.
- You want to start without an application step. Digital Admits says "We limit who we work with" and asks centers to apply.
When should you pick RehabAdmit?
You want paid search producing calls in the near term while SEO builds (Google has said SEO in most cases needs four months to a year to show benefit), plus the CRM and admissions process to turn those calls into VOBs and admits. One flat fee covers the work.
RehabAdmit strengths:
- We work only with addiction treatment and behavioral health programs
- One flat monthly fee for services. Nothing tied to admissions or census.
- Paid media, SEO, CRM setup and admissions process work in one engagement
- Reporting built on VOBs and cost per admission, so you see what a bed costs you
- You keep the ad accounts, tracking numbers and data if you ever leave
Where RehabAdmit does not fit:
- Founders who need a feasibility study, state licensing or CARF / Joint Commission accreditation. We do not do that work.
- Centers that want to pay an agency per admission. We will not price that way (see the legal note below).
- Centers that only want reputation management.
How do you choose between Digital Admits and RehabAdmit?
Ask every agency on your list, including us, the same five questions:
- How are you paid? Ask for a flat fee in writing. Federal law (18 U.S.C. § 220) bars paying anyone to induce a referral to a treatment facility. Fees tied to admissions or census put your center at risk.
- Who owns the ad accounts, tracking numbers and data? You should, from day one.
- What do you report? Leads alone hide the real cost. Ask for cost per VOB and cost per admission.
- What is the contract term? Month to month, 6 months or 12 months changes your risk.
- Are my ad accounts cleared to run? In the US, Google requires addiction treatment advertisers to be certified by LegitScript and by Google.
Numbers to ask about: Webserv's 2025 State of Rehab Marketing report, built from its own clients' paid search ($16.5M in ad spend, 994 admits), shows an average of $2,552 per VOB and $16,608 per admit. In our experience running detox and residential campaigns, cost per admission from Google and directories runs $2,000 to $5,000 in-network and $7,000 to $15,000 out-of-network. Ask any agency where your numbers sit and why.
