Free and low-cost care: scope
80%of Michigan programs
Public addiction treatment in Michigan is organized by regional Prepaid Inpatient Health Plans (PIHPs). Besides Medicaid, they manage state-administered funds, including the federal substance use block grant, which gives priority to people who are uninsured or underinsured. What is funded varies by region, so call the access line of the PIHP that covers your county.
Michigan, listed programs: 201 with a sliding fee scale; 343 with public funds (county, state or federal) for patients unable to pay; 228 with payment help. Federal Substance Use Block Grant funding requires priority admission for people who inject drugs and pregnant women.
Medicaid is also accepted at 341 of these programs; for those who qualify, Medicaid coverage expands the list of options. Step 1: get the price. Step 2: run it through the cost calculator; the self-check indicates which level of care to request.
