Needles - State Financed Insurance (other than Medicaid)

Being approved for state financed insurance (other than Medicaid) to cover the expense of drug rehab takes a number of steps. Your very first step will be contacting 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 may differ in how much funding they have to treat drug addiction, there are also extra circumstances that come into play to decide your qualifications for state financed insurance (other than Medicaid). The staff will inquire as to whether you have any other form of insurance, how much income you receive each year, whether you need detoxification, what degree of treatment you need to have (inpatient/outpatient/counseling) as well as if you have previously had access to state funded treatment in the past.
