Being qualified for state financed insurance (other than Medicaid) to cover the cost of drug treatment takes various steps. Your first step will be getting a hold of the state and local offices in your area. You will need to converse with their staff to decide your eligibility. While each state in the United States deviates in how much financing they have to treat drug addiction, there are also extra circumstances that come into play to figure out your qualifications for state financed insurance (other than Medicaid). The staff will inquire as to whether or not you have any other form of insurance, how much money you earn each year, whether you need detoxification, what degree of treatment you need (inpatient/outpatient/counseling) as well as if you have already had access to state funded treatment in the past.
