Root Center Partners with Pequot Health Care

November 1, 2023

In honor of National Native American Heritage Month, we are excited to announce our new partnership with Pequot Health Care. We feel honored that they have chosen “Root” to be their healthcare provider of choice for addiction and mental health treatment!

Pequot Health Care is a wholly-owned business of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, long recognized as a leader in managing health care plans for Native American tribes and other commercial enterprises. This partnership will serve members and employees of Tribal Nations. We look forward to welcoming these new patients to Root! More details on this exciting new venture to come soon.
