Qualifying for state financed insurance (other than Medicaid) to cover the cost of drug treatment takes a number of steps. Your initial step will be getting a hold of the state and local offices in your location. You will need to converse with their staff to figure out your eligibility. While each state in the United States ranges in how much financing they have to treat drug addiction, there are also further circumstances that come into play to determine your qualifications for state financed insurance (other than Medicaid). The staff will inquire as to whether you have any other kind of insurance, how much money you earn each year, whether you need detoxification, what level of treatment you will need (inpatient/outpatient/counseling) as well as if you have previously had access to state funded treatment in the past.
