Level of care
Insurance & cost
Specialized programs
Most people pay for rehab with health insurance. 103 facilities in Nebraska accept private insurance and 106 accept Medicaid (Nebraska Medicaid (Heritage Health)). 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, 50 programs report state or SAMHSA block-grant funding for people who qualify, and 67 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 Nebraska rehab guide
Treatment options in Nebraska range from outpatient counseling a few hours a week to medically supervised detox and 24-hour residential programs. Of the 114 facilities listed here, 15 offer detox, 27 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.
106 facilities in Nebraska report accepting Medicaid (Nebraska Medicaid (Heritage Health)) and 103 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, 50 programs in Nebraska 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 Nebraska DHHS, Division of Behavioral Health oversees publicly funded substance use treatment in Nebraska. Publicly funded treatment is organized through six regional behavioral health authorities. Visit the agency.
Nebraska has expanded Medicaid, so adults with incomes up to about 138% of the federal poverty level can qualify for Nebraska Medicaid (Heritage Health), which covers addiction treatment.
In Nebraska, 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 a period the statute does not fix; a county mental health board orders treatment and receives progress reports every 90 days in the first year. 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 114 licensed substance use treatment facilities in Nebraska, based on SAMHSA's FindTreatment.gov data.
Yes. Medicaid programs cover substance use disorder treatment, and 106 facilities in Nebraska report accepting Nebraska Medicaid (Heritage Health). Covered services and provider networks vary by plan, so confirm with the program before admission.
50 programs in Nebraska report state or federal (SAMHSA block grant) funding, which can cover treatment for people without insurance who qualify. Call (833) 589-6933 or SAMHSA's helpline at 1-800-662-4357 for help finding a low-cost option.

Our directory lists 114 licensed substance use treatment facilities in Nebraska, based on SAMHSA's FindTreatment.gov data (updated October 2026). Listings include outpatient, residential, detox and medication-assisted treatment programs.
Yes. 15 programs in Nebraska offer detoxification (medically supervised withdrawal) services. Alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal can be dangerous, so medical supervision is strongly recommended.
106 facilities in Nebraska report accepting Medicaid (Nebraska Medicaid (Heritage Health)). Coverage depends on your plan and the program's network, so confirm before admission.
103 facilities in Nebraska 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.
27 facilities in Nebraska offer residential (inpatient) treatment, where you live on site 24/7 while in care. Learn more about inpatient rehab.
Yes. 74 programs in Nebraska 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. 27 facilities in Nebraska offer residential care.
Most people use private health insurance, Medicaid (Nebraska Medicaid (Heritage Health)), Medicare or TRICARE, which are required to cover substance use treatment. People without insurance may qualify for state- or SAMHSA-funded programs (50 in Nebraska 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.
