Treatment rules and programs in California

Who oversees treatment

The California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) licenses residential nonmedical alcohol and other drug treatment facilities and also certifies many of them under its AOD certification standards.

Prescription monitoring

California's prescription drug monitoring program is CURES (Controlled Substance Utilization Review and Evaluation System), operated by the California Department of Justice. It tracks dispensed controlled substance prescriptions so prescribers, pharmacists and regulators can review them.

Public coverage for treatment

Medi-Cal is California's Medicaid program. It covers substance use disorder treatment through the Drug Medi-Cal Organized Delivery System, a county opt-in continuum of care based on ASAM criteria.

Overdose Good Samaritan law

California Health and Safety Code section 11376.5 gives limited protection from charges for drug possession or being under the influence to people who seek medical help for an overdose in good faith, and to the person overdosing. It does not cover selling or giving drugs.

Court-ordered treatment

California's expanded definition of grave disability (SB 43) lets a severe substance use disorder, alone or with a mental health disorder, support involuntary holds and LPS conservatorship when a person cannot meet basic needs for safety or medical care.

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.

How dual diagnosis treatment works

Dual diagnosis treatment treats substance use and mental health conditions at the same time, with one team. It usually combines therapy, psychiatric medication management and addiction treatment. The programs on this page report treatment for co-occurring serious mental illness, psychiatric medications and an LGBTQ program or group.

Insurance and cost

Federal parity rules generally require health plans that cover substance use treatment to cover it on terms comparable to other medical care. Your cost depends on your plan, deductible and the program's network status, so verify benefits first. Our insurance guides explain how major carriers handle rehab.
