Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare is a specialized substance abuse treatment program located in North Little Rock, AR, dedicated to serving veterans and their families. The facility operates the Special Treatment Section at the North Little Rock Division and provides comprehensive care for individuals struggling with alcohol and drug addiction. What sets this program apart is its focus on meeting the unique needs of military-connected individuals while also serving seniors, women, and men in the broader community.
Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare offers a full continuum of care to meet patients at different stages of recovery. Detoxification services provide medically supervised withdrawal management for individuals in the acute phase of addiction. The facility offers residential short-term treatment (30 days or less) for patients needing intensive, structured care in a supportive environment, as well as residential long-term treatment (30+ days) for those requiring extended support to rebuild their lives. Outpatient programs allow individuals to receive treatment while maintaining work, school, or family responsibilities. The facility also provides hospitalization and inpatient care for patients with co-occurring medical or psychiatric conditions, and operates a halfway house or sober living home to support individuals transitioning back to independent living. Additionally, buprenorphine treatment is available as a medication-assisted therapy option for opioid addiction.
Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare accepts multiple forms of payment to ensure cost is not a barrier to care, including Medicaid, Medicare, private health insurance, military insurance (VA/TRICARE), and self-payment options. For veterans and covered dependents, military insurance coverage is honored, and the facility works directly with insurance providers to verify benefits and minimize out-of-pocket costs. Under the Mental Health Parity Act, substance abuse treatment is covered on par with other medical conditions, meaning your insurance plan must provide equal access to addiction care.
