Arkansas Resources

Arkansas offers Medicaid, medicare and medi-cal programs to the residents that are living in the state. Addiction is a problem that so many states, including Arkansas are faced with. This problem continues to wreak havoc and leave devastation everywhere it turns, causing more problems than not.

Those that are living within this state might have to soon work to receive the Medicaid care that they use if they are going to use it for addiction help. This is because they feel that those that require this type of help should have to work to receive it. With a lot of addiction research underway, a lot of change is set to be proposed for the state, offering more ability to change and to open up new paths for those addicted.

The resources provided below are there to provide the necessary information for those that are battling their addiction and have Medicaid, medicare or medi-cal coverage. Help is always there when it is needed.
