Overdose Good Samaritan law

Georgia's 9-1-1 Medical Amnesty law (O.C.G.A. 16-13-5) protects a person who in good faith seeks medical help for an overdose, for themselves or someone else, from arrest and prosecution for certain minor drug possession offenses when the evidence comes solely from seeking help. It also covers some probation, parole and protective order violations tied to those offenses.

Paying for treatment

Most private health insurance plans cover addiction treatment, including detox, residential care and outpatient programs, though coverage depends on your plan and whether the program is in network. Ask about prior authorization before you go, and see our insurance guides.
