Level of care
Insurance & cost
Specialized programs
Most people pay for rehab with health insurance. 88 facilities in Arkansas accept private insurance and 71 accept Medicaid (Arkansas Medicaid). Under the Affordable Care Act and federal parity law, most plans must cover addiction treatment much like other medical care, though deductibles, prior authorization and network rules apply.
Without insurance, 45 programs report state or SAMHSA block-grant funding for people who qualify, and 40 offer sliding-scale fees based on income. What you pay depends mostly on the level of care: outpatient programs cost far less than residential rehab or medically managed detox.

Rehab guide
Your Arkansas rehab guide
Treatment options in Arkansas range from outpatient counseling a few hours a week to medically supervised detox and 24-hour residential programs. Of the 94 facilities listed here, 15 offer detox, 25 provide residential (inpatient) treatment, 74 offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and 4 are federally certified opioid treatment programs that dispense methadone.
The right level of care depends on how severe the substance use is, whether withdrawal could be dangerous, other health conditions and the support you have at home. A clinical assessment, often free over the phone, is the usual first step.
71 facilities in Arkansas report accepting Medicaid (Arkansas Medicaid) and 88 accept private health insurance. Under the Affordable Care Act and federal parity law, most health plans must cover substance use disorder treatment on terms comparable to other medical care, though prior authorization and network rules apply.
If you have no insurance, 45 programs in Arkansas report government or SAMHSA block-grant funding, which can pay for treatment for people who qualify. Many others offer sliding-scale fees based on income.
The Arkansas Department of Human Services, Division of Aging, Adult and Behavioral Health Services oversees publicly funded substance use treatment in Arkansas. Visit the agency.
Arkansas has expanded Medicaid, so adults with incomes up to about 138% of the federal poverty level can qualify for Arkansas Medicaid, which covers addiction treatment.
In Arkansas, the law allows a court to order involuntary treatment for a substance use disorder in limited circumstances, usually when the person is a danger to themselves or others or cannot care for themselves. An order can last an initial period of up to 21 days, which a court can extend. Laws and procedures change, so contact the local court clerk or an attorney before filing.
If you or someone else is in danger, call 911. For a mental health or substance use crisis, call or text 988 (the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline). SAMHSA's National Helpline, 1-800-662-4357, is free, confidential and open 24/7 for treatment referrals.
Our directory lists 94 licensed substance use treatment facilities in Arkansas, based on SAMHSA's FindTreatment.gov data.
Yes. Medicaid programs cover substance use disorder treatment, and 71 facilities in Arkansas report accepting Arkansas Medicaid. Covered services and provider networks vary by plan, so confirm with the program before admission.

Our directory lists 94 licensed substance use treatment facilities in Arkansas, based on SAMHSA's FindTreatment.gov data (updated October 2026). Listings include outpatient, residential, detox and medication-assisted treatment programs.
Yes. 15 programs in Arkansas offer detoxification (medically supervised withdrawal) services. Alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal can be dangerous, so medical supervision is strongly recommended.
71 facilities in Arkansas report accepting Medicaid (Arkansas Medicaid). Coverage depends on your plan and the program's network, so confirm before admission.
88 facilities in Arkansas accept private health insurance. Benefits vary by plan (deductibles, prior authorization, in- vs. out-of-network). Call (833) 589-6933 for a free insurance check.
25 facilities in Arkansas offer residential (inpatient) treatment, where you live on site 24/7 while in care. Learn more about inpatient rehab.
Yes. 74 programs in Arkansas use FDA-approved medications such as buprenorphine, naltrexone or methadone. See our guide to MAT.
Residential programs commonly run 28 to 30 days, with longer stays of 60 to 90 days for more severe addiction, and detox alone usually takes 3 to 10 days. The National Institute on Drug Abuse notes that most people need at least three months of treatment, across all levels of care, to significantly reduce or stop drug use, and that longer treatment is linked to better outcomes. 25 facilities in Arkansas offer residential care.
Most people use private health insurance, Medicaid (Arkansas Medicaid), Medicare or TRICARE, which are required to cover substance use treatment. People without insurance may qualify for state- or SAMHSA-funded programs (45 in Arkansas report this funding) or sliding-scale fees. Call (833) 589-6933 for a free benefits check.
Cost depends mainly on the level of care and your coverage. Outpatient counseling is the least expensive; intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization cost more; residential rehab and medically managed detox cost the most because they include 24-hour care. With insurance, your share is set by your deductible, copays and out-of-pocket maximum, so verify benefits with the program before admission.
Yes. Many people travel for treatment, for example to put distance between themselves and triggers or to reach a specialized program. Check whether your plan covers out-of-state or out-of-network care first: Medicaid generally covers only in-state providers, while many private plans have national networks.
