Level of care
Insurance & cost
Specialized programs
Most people pay for rehab with health insurance. 99 facilities in Maine accept private insurance and 114 accept Medicaid (MaineCare). 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, 41 programs report state or SAMHSA block-grant funding for people who qualify, and 44 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 Maine rehab guide
Treatment options in Maine range from outpatient counseling a few hours a week to medically supervised detox and 24-hour residential programs. Of the 121 facilities listed here, 15 offer detox, 12 provide residential (inpatient) treatment, 92 offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and 12 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.
114 facilities in Maine report accepting Medicaid (MaineCare) and 99 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, 41 programs in Maine 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 Maine Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Behavioral Health oversees publicly funded substance use treatment in Maine. Visit the agency.

Maine has expanded Medicaid, so adults with incomes up to about 138% of the federal poverty level can qualify for MaineCare, which covers addiction treatment.
In Maine, 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 up to four months of inpatient treatment (Maine treats the effects of drug or alcohol use as a mental illness under its commitment law). 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.

Yes. Medicaid programs cover substance use disorder treatment, and 114 facilities in Maine report accepting MaineCare. Covered services and provider networks vary by plan, so confirm with the program before admission.

Our directory lists 121 licensed substance use treatment facilities in Maine, based on SAMHSA's FindTreatment.gov data (updated October 2026). Listings include outpatient, residential, detox and medication-assisted treatment programs.
Yes. 15 programs in Maine offer detoxification (medically supervised withdrawal) services. Alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal can be dangerous, so medical supervision is strongly recommended.
114 facilities in Maine report accepting Medicaid (MaineCare). Coverage depends on your plan and the program's network, so confirm before admission.
99 facilities in Maine 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.
12 facilities in Maine offer residential (inpatient) treatment, where you live on site 24/7 while in care. Learn more about inpatient rehab.
Yes. 92 programs in Maine 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. 12 facilities in Maine offer residential care.
Most people use private health insurance, Medicaid (MaineCare), Medicare or TRICARE, which are required to cover substance use treatment. People without insurance may qualify for state- or SAMHSA-funded programs (41 in Maine 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.
