Treatment Resources
The first step to seeking treatment is to schedule a chemical health assessment. All Minnesota counties and tribes are mandated to provide Rule 25 assessments, and assessments are conducted in the person’s county or tribe of residence. Those who meet both clinical and financial requirements are eligible to have treatment paid for. For more information about Rule 25, click here.
If the individual has medical assistance, they will need to contact their county or tribe of residence for an assessment. If the individual has private insurance or a prepaid medical plan through the state of Minnesota (PMAP), contact the telephone number on the back of their insurance card for a referral. Many counties contract with insurance companies. Normally there is no charge for an assessment if it is done with a network approved provider.
