Drug & Alcohol Detox in Arkansas

Arkansas has made notable progress on overdose deaths in recent years. One way this was accomplished was by expanding access to medication-assisted treatment. In 2025, Arkansas Act 964 removed prior authorization requirements for FDA-approved MAT medications under Medicaid, which speeds up access to buprenorphine and other opioid use disorder treatments for beneficiaries statewide.

Another important measure was the development of the Arkansas Opioid Recovery Partnership (ARORP). ARORP is funded through opioid settlement dollars and has become the state’s primary vehicle for expanding naloxone distribution and treatment access, particularly in the rural Delta counties where distance and provider shortages make care harder to reach.

Substance use treatment in Arkansas is licensed through the Department of Human Services, Division of Aging, Adult and Behavioral Health Services, working through the Office of Substance Abuse and Mental Health (OSAMH) and the Office of Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention (OADAP). OADAP holds the authority to license alcohol and drug abuse treatment programs statewide, and all contracted providers receiving block grant funding must be nationally accredited.

Anyone choosing a detox center in Arkansas should confirm the facility’s OADAP license and accreditation status before intake.

Paying for Detox in Arkansas

The cost of detox and addiction treatment in Arkansas depends heavily on whether care is delivered through a state-licensed nonprofit, a private facility or a hospital setting.

Reviewing how insurance covers detox before enrolling can clarify what portion of the cost you will be responsible for and prevent any surprise expenses.

How Much Does Detox Cost in Arkansas?

Arkansas is consistently ranked among the most affordable states in the country for addiction treatment, with pricing well below national and regional averages across every level of care.

The figures below are full cash-pay rates before insurance, Medicaid, or other assistance. Keep in mind that your out-of-pocket costs are likely to be far less.

Arkansas’s residential and outpatient rates are among the lowest in the Southeast, and Arkansas Act 964’s removal of Medicaid prior authorization for MAT has made medication-assisted treatment one of the most accessible and lowest-cost paths to care in the state.

$131,000 (hospital-based treatment)

Medical Detox

$47,000 (30 day residential care)

Inpatient Rehab

$8,000 (varies by frequency and duration)

Outpatient Rehab

$7,000 (annual costs)

Methadone Treatment

Medicare and Medicaid in Arkansas

Medicare

Medicare covers substance use disorder treatment for eligible Arkansas residents, including inpatient detox, outpatient care, and counseling. Medicare Part B covers opioid use disorder treatment through enrolled opioid treatment programs, including methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone. Arkansas residents who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid receive coordinated coverage through Arkansas Medicaid.

Medicaid

Arkansas Health and Opportunity for Me (ARHOME) is the state’s Medicaid expansion program, covering adults ages 19 to 64 earning up to 138% of the federal poverty level.

ARHOME enrollees receive coverage through qualified health plans from Arkansas Blue Cross Blue Shield, Ambetter or QualChoice, and those with serious mental illness or substance use disorder can access enhanced care coordination through the Provider-led Arkansas Shared Savings Entity (PASSE) program.

ARHOME plans cover the full continuum of SUD residential treatment, which traditional fee-for-service Arkansas Medicaid does not cover for adults due to federal institutional payment restrictions.

Other Ways to Pay for Detox Treatment

Arkansans without insurance still have options for affordable treatment:

Sliding Scale Payment Systems

OADAP-licensed nonprofit providers that receive block grant funding are required to offer services on a sliding fee scale based on ability to pay.

Nonprofits and Charities

Community-based providers across the state receive Substance Use Prevention, Treatment, and Recovery Services Block Grant (SUPTRS-BG) funding to serve low-income Arkansans.

Rural and Delta County Programs

The First Responder Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (FR CARA) program focuses overdose prevention and referral resources on 22 Arkansas Delta counties with limited treatment access.

Opioid Settlement Funding

The Arkansas Opioid Recovery Partnership distributes settlement dollars to expand naloxone access and treatment capacity statewide.

Key MAT Medications and Regulatory Status in Arkansas

In Arkansas, medication-assisted detox, which is regulated at both the federal and state level, has expanded significantly since Arkansas Act 964 removed prior authorization barriers for Medicaid beneficiaries.

Buprenorphine

Covered by Arkansas Medicaid without prior authorization for qualifying beneficiaries, and increasingly available through office-based prescribers and telehealth.

Methadone

Available only through certified Opioid Treatment Programs regulated by OADAP as the state’s Opioid Treatment Authority.

Naltrexone

Available by prescription through physicians’ offices. The injectable form (Vivitrol) has more limited Medicaid documentation than buprenorphine but is covered in physician office settings.

Overdose Prevention and Harm Reduction in Arkansas

Harm reduction programs are critical in the prevention of overdose deaths in Arkansas. To help protect the most vulnerable, the state has significantly expanded harm reduction access in recent years through opioid settlement funding and community organizations working alongside opioid-focused prevention campaigns.

FAQs About Detox in Arkansas

How do I find free or low-cost detox in Arkansas if I don't have insurance?

Contact an OADAP-licensed nonprofit provider, which is required to offer sliding-scale fees based on income, or apply for ARHOME through the Arkansas Department of Human Services. You can also reach out to organizations like Central Arkansas Harm Reduction, which can help with Medicaid enrollment and connect you to treatment resources.

Does ARHOME Medicaid cover residential detox in Arkansas?

Yes. ARHOME qualified health plans cover the full continuum of substance use disorder residential treatment, which traditional Arkansas Medicaid does not cover for adults due to federal restrictions on payments to institutions for mental disease.

This makes ARHOME enrollment especially valuable for anyone who needs residential care.

Is medication-assisted treatment covered without prior authorization in Arkansas?

Yes, for Medicaid beneficiaries. Arkansas Act 964 removed prior authorization requirements for all FDA-approved MAT medications under Medicaid, including buprenorphine and buprenorphine/naloxone combinations, speeding up access to treatment for opioid use disorder.

What is the difference between inpatient and outpatient detox in Arkansas?

Inpatient detox provides 24-hour medical supervision for higher-risk withdrawal, such as alcohol or benzodiazepines, while outpatient detox allows a person to continue living at home while attending scheduled treatment sessions.

In most cases, outpatient care is more accessible and affordable for Arkansans in rural areas.

What should I do if someone is overdosing in Arkansas?

Call 911 immediately and administer naloxone if you have it. Naloxone is available for free through the Arkansas Opioid Recovery Partnership, Central Arkansas Harm Reduction and many pharmacies statewide. Arkansas’s statewide media campaign encourages anyone who witnesses an overdose to call 911 without hesitation. Calling can save a life.
