Treatment rules and programs in Wyoming

Who oversees treatment

The Wyoming Department of Health's Behavioral Health Division certifies substance use disorder programs, providers, and facilities in the state.

Prescription monitoring

Wyoming's prescription drug monitoring program is PMP AWARxE Wyoming, established and overseen by the Wyoming Board of Pharmacy. It collects Schedule II-V controlled substance prescription data from dispensers.

Overdose Good Samaritan law

Wyoming law (W.S. 35-7-1064) gives limited immunity from prosecution for controlled substance possession and use to a person who seeks medical help for an overdose, and to the overdose victim, when conditions such as staying at the scene and cooperating are met.

Why LGBTQ-specific care can matter

Research summarized by the National Institute on Drug Abuse finds that sexual and gender minority people report higher rates of substance use and substance use disorders than the general population. Researchers often explain the gap with minority stress: the extra, ongoing strain of stigma, discrimination and having to stay on guard.

A program with an LGBTQ group gives you a place to talk about those pressures with people who share them, instead of working around them.

What gay-friendly rehab looks like

Gay-friendly rehab is still rehab: detox if you need it, therapy, groups, and an aftercare plan. What changes is that your relationships, social life and identity are part of the conversation instead of something you edit out.

Using your insurance

Before you call a program, have your insurance card ready and ask three things: is the program in network, does this level of care need prior authorization, and what will you owe after the deductible. Our insurance guides walk through major carriers.
