NJ FamilyCare is New Jersey's publicly funded health insurance program, including Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). It covers substance use disorder treatment for eligible members when care is medically necessary. Most members get care through a managed care plan.
New Jersey expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, so many low-income adults qualify. Covered services can range from outpatient counseling and medication-assisted treatment (MAT), which combines FDA-approved medication with counseling, to more intensive care. Ask any program whether it accepts your specific NJ FamilyCare plan.
The Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS), part of the Department of Human Services, oversees publicly funded addiction services, including help for people without insurance. Explore New Jersey programs that accept Medicaid or learn how Medicaid coverage generally works.
Have questions about NJ FamilyCare or private insurance? Call (877) 847-2855 to talk with our admissions helpline. It's free and confidential.
The New Jersey Department of Health licenses substance use disorder treatment facilities, including residential and outpatient programs.
New rules that took effect April 6, 2026, created an integrated license for outpatient facilities. It lets one facility offer primary care, behavioral health and substance use treatment under a single Department of Health license. Existing outpatient behavioral health licensees move to the new license when they renew.
Before you commit, ask the program for its state license and confirm that it covers the level of care you need. Our guide on how to choose a rehab explains other quality checks, including accreditation and staff credentials.
New Jersey law prohibits paying or accepting kickbacks for patient referrals. In August 2025, Acting Governor Tahesha Way signed legislation (A3973/S3952) that strengthened those rules. According to the New Jersey Office of the Public Defender, the law:
Be cautious of anyone who offers free rent, travel, cash or gifts for entering treatment or moving into a sober home. If you're considering recovery housing, read about sober living in New Jersey and ask who operates the home.
Direct questions help you spot quality care and avoid problems. Before you agree to admission, ask:
A legitimate program will answer clearly and won't rush you. If withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines is a concern, ask how the program handles medically supervised detox, since that withdrawal can be life-threatening.
New Jersey is densely populated, so most residents can reach several programs. Major areas include:
Use the filters on this page to find detox centers, residential programs, intensive outpatient programs or medication-assisted treatment.
If you have NJ FamilyCare, staying in New Jersey is usually simplest, since coverage generally applies to in-state providers. Local care also makes it easier for family to take part and for you to continue outpatient treatment after a residential stay.
New Jersey's location also puts programs in New York and Pennsylvania within reach. If you have private insurance, compare networks and out-of-pocket costs before choosing, and ask how the program will support your aftercare at home. Our guide on whether insurance covers rehab explains how networks and prior authorization work.
New Jersey offers many options close to home. Focus on licensing, the right level of care and honest answers about cost. 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.
