How We Rank Listings
Every rehab center in the Greeley directory is a licensed or accredited provider, and listings are organized to help you compare real options rather than to promote one facility over another. We prioritize programs that hold state licensure through the Colorado Behavioral Health Administration and independent accreditation from the Joint Commission or CARF, and we label any sponsored placement clearly so you always know what you are looking at.
Listing details reflect the levels of care, specialty tracks, and payment types each facility reports, drawn from public licensing records and facility information. Because openings and insurance participation change, confirm current availability and program specifics directly with a center when you reach out. The aim is to give you an accurate starting point for finding care close to home.
Rehab in Greeley: What to Know
Greeley is the seat of Weld County and home to the University of Northern Colorado, a growing city with agricultural roots and a solid base of addiction treatment. The area has 11 rehab centers offering detox, inpatient, and outpatient care, and you can compare every nearby option through the Colorado rehab directory.
North Range Behavioral Health, the community behavioral health provider for Weld County, anchors local care in Greeley with medical detox, residential and intensive outpatient programs, medication-assisted treatment, and 24/7 crisis support. Public behavioral health for residents with Health First Colorado is coordinated by Northeast Health Partners, the regional accountable entity for Larimer and Weld counties. Naloxone is available by mail to Weld residents through the North Colorado Health Alliance.
Greeley and the rest of Weld County have felt the fentanyl crisis, with dozens of overdose deaths recorded in recent years. Statewide, Colorado overdose deaths began falling in 2024, which makes fast access to treatment and naloxone especially valuable in Northern Colorado.
Cost of Rehab in Greeley
The cost of rehab in Greeley depends on the level of care, program length, and whether you use insurance. Colorado ranks around the middle nationally for treatment affordability, with a statewide residential average of roughly $56,413 without insurance, though most people pay a fraction of that once insurance benefits are applied. The figures below reflect Colorado averages by care type.
Medical detox is the most expensive level of care, at an average of $139,079 statewide (National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics, 2022).
Long-term inpatient rehab in Colorado averages $49,781 (National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics, 2022).
Outpatient addiction treatment averages $8,272, far less than residential care (National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics, 2022).
Outpatient methadone treatment is the most affordable option, averaging $7,349 (National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics, 2022).
Actual costs vary with setting, amenities, and length of stay. Outpatient programs cost far less than residential care and are the most common local format, while medical detox and inpatient stays carry the highest price tags. Because North Range and other local providers serve Health First Colorado members and offer sliding-scale fees, many Greeley residents pay little out of pocket.
How to Pay for Rehab in Greeley
Across the 11 rehab centers serving Greeley, most accept private insurance and self-payment, and many work with Health First Colorado, Medicare, or TRICARE. The counts below show how many local facilities report accepting each payment type.
Which option makes the most sense depends on your coverage and income. The subsections below outline how the main payment paths work for Greeley residents.
Health First Colorado (Colorado Medicaid)
Colorado’s Medicaid program, Health First Colorado, covers the full continuum of substance use care, from detox to outpatient counseling and medication-assisted treatment. Benefits are coordinated through Northeast Health Partners, the regional accountable entity for Larimer and Weld counties, and six Greeley facilities report accepting Health First Colorado. North Range Behavioral Health accepts Medicaid across its locations and is a strong local starting point.
Medicare
Medicare covers substance use treatment that is medically necessary, including inpatient care under Part A and outpatient services and counseling under Part B, with Medicare Advantage plans offering the same benefits. Five Greeley area centers accept Medicare, a relatively strong share for a mid-sized city.
Military and TRICARE
Veterans and active-duty families have several routes to care. Four area facilities accept TRICARE, and the VA coordinates services through Northern Colorado clinics and the Cheyenne VA system to the north. See more rehab resources for veterans and military families.
Insurance and Private Pay
Most Greeley centers in the directory accept private insurance or self-payment, and marketplace plans through Connect for Health Colorado must cover substance use treatment. Coverage varies by plan and network status, so verify benefits before you commit. Major carriers active in Colorado include:
- Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield
- Kaiser Permanente
- UnitedHealthcare
- Cigna
- Aetna
- Rocky Mountain Health Plans
Other Low-Cost Options
For those without full coverage, four Greeley centers offer sliding-scale fees and three offer financial assistance. North Range Behavioral Health serves residents regardless of ability to pay, and treatment scholarships can help close the gap.
Levels of Care Available in Greeley
Greeley offers care across the continuum, with 4 detox programs, 6 inpatient programs, and 10 outpatient clinics reported locally, plus a sober living option. Most facilities also treat co-occurring mental health conditions.
Medical detox provides 24-hour supervision to manage withdrawal safely and is the usual first step for opioid or alcohol dependence. Four area programs offer medically supervised detox, including North Range’s detox and acute treatment unit.
Inpatient and residential rehab provides structured, live-in treatment. Six local inpatient rehab programs serve people who need to step away from daily triggers, including intensive and transitional residential options.
Outpatient treatment lets people live at home while attending scheduled sessions, and it is the most common local format, with 10 clinics reported. It suits people balancing work, school, or family.
Dual diagnosis care treats addiction alongside conditions like depression or anxiety. Seven reporting facilities address co-occurring disorders, which matters given how often mental health and substance use overlap.
Sober living offers substance-free housing that supports the transition back to independent life. One local home provides this option, paired with aftercare planning.
Specialty Programs in Greeley
Many Greeley facilities tailor treatment to specific groups and substances. The counts below reflect programs that report each specialty focus.
Alcohol is the most widely reported specialty locally, with nine programs focused on alcohol use disorder, and five treat opioid use disorder. Greeley programs also serve women, men, young adults, and older adults, with additional specialty options available in nearby Fort Collins and the metro.
