Stimulant Rehab in Arizona

Treatment rules and programs in Arizona

Who oversees treatment

AHCCCS, Arizona's Medicaid agency, is the Single State Agency for substance abuse treatment. The Arizona Department of Health Services licenses behavioral health residential facilities that provide substance use treatment.

Prescription monitoring

The Arizona State Board of Pharmacy runs the Arizona Prescription Monitoring Program, a statewide database of dispensed Schedule II through V controlled substances that licensed prescribers and pharmacists can check.

Public coverage for treatment

Arizona's Medicaid program is run by AHCCCS (Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System). AHCCCS lists medication-assisted treatment, residential treatment, counseling and case management among its substance use treatment services.

Overdose Good Samaritan law

Arizona has a drug overdose Good Samaritan law that gives immunity from prosecution for drug possession to people who, in good faith, seek medical help for themselves or someone else during an overdose, such as by calling 911 or contacting law enforcement, poison control or an emergency department. A later bill removed the repeal date and made the protections permanent.

Court-ordered treatment

Arizona's court-ordered evaluation and treatment process under Title 36 requires a mental disorder meeting criteria like danger to self or others, and AHCCCS states it is not meant to treat substance use disorders alone. A person with a substance use disorder qualifies only if the behavior stems from a separate qualifying mental disorder.

What to know about prescription stimulants

Prescription stimulants include amphetamines such as Adderall, Vyvanse and Dexedrine, and methylphenidate products such as Ritalin and Concerta. They are Schedule II controlled substances. Taken as prescribed they help many people with ADHD; misused, they can lead to dependence, sleep problems, anxiety and heart strain.

Treatment for stimulant addiction centers on behavioral approaches, with contingency management having some of the strongest evidence. Learn how stimulant addiction is treated.

Therapies that work for stimulant addiction

Unlike opioid addiction, stimulant addiction has no FDA-approved medication, so the therapy you get is the treatment. Look for programs near Arizona that offer contingency management, cognitive behavioral therapy or the Matrix Model, delivered with enough intensity: residential care or several sessions a week.

Insurance and cost

Federal parity rules generally require health plans that cover substance use treatment to cover it on terms comparable to other medical care. Your actual cost depends on your plan, deductible and the program's network status, so verify benefits first. Our insurance guides explain how major carriers handle prescription drug rehab.
