GUIDE TO FINDING TREATMENT

Paying for Treatment in New Mexico

Drug and alcohol rehab is the most successful way to end a substance use problem. There are different ways to pay for the drug and alcohol treatment centers that are available throughout the state of New Mexico, including private health insurance, Medicaid and Medicare, self-payment or cash-payment programs as well as sliding scale programs, all to help anyone struggling with a substance use problem afford care regardless of financial status.

Paying for Treatment with Medicaid in New Mexico

The state of New Mexico accepted federal funding for Medicaid in 2014 and has continued to expand the Medicaid programs to ensure residents are covered regardless of their income or financial status. Recent Medicaid expansions have made more residents eligible for coverage, and the number of insured Medicaid patients has also risen. Medicaid is accepted at numerous drug treatment facilities throughout the state, allowing you to receive the treatment needed for substance use while the insurance covers the care. Medicaid can answer any questions regarding your coverage or what programs are available in your area.

Using Private Insurance to Pay for Drug Rehab in New Mexico

Private health insurance is another way to make drug and alcohol treatment more affordable for drug users in New Mexico. The type of drug treatment, as well as the out-of-pocket expenses associated with treatment, will depend on the type of health insurance policy you have and the program. Certain health insurance providers will work with specific treatment centers and cover those services only. All private health insurance offers some coverage of all basic substance use services to ensure it is readily available for all clients.

According to the New Mexico Health Insurance Marketplace Guide 2023, the following insurers are available in New Mexico:

• Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico
• Molina
• Presbyterian Health Plan
• Western Sky Community Care

Paying for Treatment when Uninsured

Although Medicaid and private health insurance policies can help many patients pay for drug treatment, there are still uninsured people in New Mexico who need substance use treatment. Self-pay or cash-pay programs are offered throughout the state and allow patients to pay for drug treatment, usually at a lower cost. Sliding scale programs allow patients to pay a cost based on their income and can be broken up into payments to make the treatment more obtainable for everyone in the state.

DRS’ Evaluation of New Mexico Drug Rehabs

In New Mexico, there is accessible substance use treatment, yet the demand has overtaken the available number of beds. Unfortunately, the selection is limited to detox centers and residential programs. Yet almost every program offers outpatient services. We recommend contacting multiple facilities and receiving an addiction assessment to determine the best options. Also, consider programs located in neighboring states.

On a positive note, most of the drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs accept Medicaid or private health insurance. In addition, about half of the facilities offer a sliding fee scale or accept state-financed health insurance other than Medicaid. Our experts recommend contacting different facilities directly. Ask about payment options. Also, contact your Medicaid office or health insurance provider to determine precisely what insurance covers.
