Over 833,598 people called SAMHSA’s National Helpline in 2020, a 27 % rise over 2019 [1]. You might worry about covering treatment costs if you rely on Medicaid. Good news, a fentanyl treatment program that accepts Medicaid can help you access care without financial strain.
Metro Rehab provides a full spectrum of services—from detox and medication management to therapy and long-term support—that all accept Medicaid. With same-day admission and personalized plans, you can get help when you need it most.
Fentanyl treatment program that accepts Medicaid
Metro Rehab’s network covers every phase of fentanyl recovery and accepts Medicaid at each step. You can begin with a medically supervised detox, then move into medication-assisted treatment (MAT) using methadone or buprenorphine. Our clinics include a same day methadone clinic that accepts medicaid and specialized suboxone treatment program that accepts medicaid. For longer-acting support, ask about brixadi injections that accept medicaid. When you’re ready for therapy, we offer both intensive outpatient program that accepts medicaid and outpatient rehab that accepts medicaid, so you can choose the setting that fits your schedule.
Same-day admission
When you call Metro Rehab’s intake line, you can often start the same day. Our staff verifies your Medicaid eligibility quickly, so you can begin opioid withdrawal management that accepts medicaid without delay. Prompt access reduces withdrawal distress and lowers risk of relapse.
Medicaid coverage details
Medicaid can cover medical detox, medications like naloxone and buprenorphine, and therapy sessions. In 2020, Medicaid financed 28 % of substance use disorder treatment services [2], making it a major funding source in the opioid epidemic response. State rules vary, but Metro Rehab handles billing directly, so you don’t have to navigate complex paperwork.
Benefits of Medicaid coverage
Affordable access to care
With Medicaid you pay little or no out-of-pocket cost for detox, therapy, or MAT. Over half of nonelderly adults with opioid use disorder who received treatment in the past year were covered by Medicaid [2]. That means low financial barriers can help you focus on recovery, not bills.
Medication treatment coverage
Medicaid not only pays for counseling but also covers life-saving medications. Under federal rules, all FDA-approved drugs for opioid use disorder must be included, and 38 states plus DC list the overdose reversal medication naloxone on their preferred drug lists [3]. You can take home naloxone, start methadone or buprenorphine, and receive follow-up medication management therapy that accepts medicaid.
Navigating admission process
What to prepare
Before you call, gather your Medicaid card, photo ID, and any recent treatment records. You’ll complete intake forms online or over the phone. If you’re underinsured, our team can help you connect to sliding-fee support via SAMHSA’s helpline.
Assessment and eligibility
A licensed clinician will review your health history, assess withdrawal risk, and recommend a level of care. You may need a quick physical exam and a brief mental-health screening. Metro Rehab’s staff guides you step by step, answering questions and helping you feel confident about next steps.
Long-term recovery support
Aftercare planning
Recovery doesn’t end with detox. We help you build an aftercare plan that may include relapse prevention planning that accepts medicaid, one-on-one counseling, and group substance use therapy that accept medicaid. Case managers coordinate appointments, housing support, and employment services through case management services that accept medicaid.
Holistic therapy options
If you prefer broader support, Metro Rehab offers holistic addiction therapy that accepts medicaid such as art therapy, yoga, and mindfulness groups. You can also join peer support programs that accept medicaid to build connections with others in recovery. For added flexibility, explore telehealth addiction counseling that accepts medicaid and virtual psychiatric evaluations that accept medicaid.
