MassHealth is the state's Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program. According to MassHealth, it covers a broad range of substance use disorder services:
| Level of care | What it is |
|---|---|
| Acute treatment services (ATS) | Medically monitored inpatient detox with 24-hour nursing |
| Clinical stabilization services (CSS) | Step-down care after detox, often with longer stays |
| Residential rehabilitation | 24-hour residential programs for adults, families, youth and people with co-occurring conditions |
| Intensive outpatient (IOP) | Several hours of mostly group treatment each week |
| Outpatient counseling | Individual or group therapy |
| Opioid treatment programs | Methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone without a 24-hour stay |
| Recovery support | Recovery coaches and recovery support navigators |
MassHealth says all coverage types except MassHealth Limited include these services, and you don't need a referral. Providers must hold BSAS licensure to enroll with MassHealth. Explore Massachusetts programs that accept MassHealth.
Have questions about MassHealth or private insurance? Call (877) 847-2855 to talk with our admissions helpline. It's free and confidential.
The Bureau of Substance Addiction Services (BSAS), part of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, licenses substance use disorder treatment programs. BSAS also licenses individual alcohol and drug counselors (LADCs).
Before you commit, ask the program for its BSAS license and confirm it covers the level of care you need. Our guide on how to choose a rehab explains other quality checks, including accreditation and medication treatment.
Families often ask what they can do when a loved one won't accept help. Section 35 (Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 123, Section 35) allows a court to order involuntary treatment for an alcohol or substance use disorder.
According to the state:
Section 35 is a legal process, not a level of care. It's meant for serious situations. Our guide on how to help a loved one covers approaches that encourage someone to choose treatment on their own.

Use the filters on this page to find detox programs, residential treatment, intensive outpatient programs, methadone clinics or sober living.
If you have MassHealth, staying in Massachusetts is usually simplest, since coverage generally applies to in-state providers. The state's range of levels of care, from ATS and CSS through residential and outpatient programs, also makes it easier to step down without changing regions.
If you have private insurance, compare networks and out-of-pocket costs before considering programs in other New England states or farther away. Ask any program how it will support your aftercare when you return home.
Massachusetts has a well-developed treatment system, but it still helps to verify licenses and ask direct questions. For help comparing programs and checking your coverage, call (877) 847-2855 to reach our admissions helpline. If you or someone you love is in danger, call 911, or call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
