Fall River is a former textile mill city on the Taunton River in Bristol County. It is located at the western edge of the South Coast near the Rhode Island line. The Massachusetts rehab directory lists 13 treatment providers in and around the city. These providers offer more outpatient and dual diagnosis care than other types of treatments. This means you'll have many addiction treatment options close to home.

SSTAR (Stanley Street Treatment and Resources) is a primary provider in the area. This is a nonprofit organization in Fall River that provides detox, medication-assisted treatment and outpatient services. Other providers include High Point Treatment Center and Seven Hills. Statewide. The latter is the Massachusetts Substance Use Helpline and the public front door to treatment, harm reduction and recovery. This resource is free and available around the clock.

Bristol County has had some of the state’s heaviest overdose numbers and Fall River was the hardest hit. In 2023 the city won a $2 million federal grant to expand its overdose response as the number of deaths has begun to fall.

Opioids and fentanyl drive most of the harm in the area. Quick access to treatment and naloxone is essential to protect public health.

Cost of Rehab in Fall River

The cost of rehab in Fall River depends on your level of care, how long treatment lasts, whether a program is public or private and what your insurance covers. Outpatient counseling is your most affordable option. However, medical detox and residential care may be required to provide you with 24/7 supervision. The cost of medication assisted treatment typically falls between outpatient and inpatient expenses.

Local figures track Massachusetts averages and most people pay far less than the sticker price once insurance, MassHealth or a sliding fee scale is applied.

Most people don't pay these amounts out of pocket. MassHealth covers the full continuum of substance use care for members who qualify after the state expanded Medicaid coverage.

Eligible residents pay little or no cost. The state funds free treatment for the uninsured through the Bureau of Substance Addiction Services. SSTAR and other local providers offer options based on your income and treatment scholarships and financial assistance can help with private programs.

Level of care: outpatient costs less than residential care or medical detox

Length of stay: 30, 60, or 90 days for residential care

Insurance: MassHealth and private plans lower out-of-pocket cost

Sliding scale: income-based fees and state-funded care for those who qualify

How to Pay for Rehab in Fall River

Medicare

Medication assisted treatment for opioid use disorder is also covered including methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone.

Military Benefits

Five Fall River programs accept TRICARE for active duty service members, retirees and eligible family members. Veterans can also access care through the VA and more addiction resources for veterans and military families are available regionally.

Insurance and Private Pay

Massachusetts requires health plans to cover mental health and substance use treatment on par with other medical care. However, your deductible and network still shape the final cost. Verifying your benefits before your admission to a treatment center will tell you what a program will cost you.

Levels of Care Available in Fall River

Fall River has a greater number of outpatient and dual diagnosis options. However, detox, residential care and sober living are also available. The cards below show how many programs in each category are available locally.

Medical detox

Medical detox is your first step when you have significant physical dependence. SSTAR operates one of the area’s main detox programs offering around the clock monitoring and medication managed withdrawal. This protects your safety before ongoing treatment begins.

Inpatient and residential rehab

Inpatient rehab provides 24/7 care in a structured residential setting when you need medical monitoring or removal from an environment that increases your risk of relapse early in your recovery journey.

Outpatient treatment

Outpatient care is the most common level of treatment available in Fall River. You can live at home and keep working or caring for family while attending scheduled treatment. Outpatient care often follows residential treatment as a step down.

Dual diagnosis care

Nearly every local program offers treatment for co occurring disorders. This type of treatment is also called dual diagnosis. It simultaneously addresses a substance use disorder and a mental health condition such as depression, anxiety or PTSD. This tends to work better than treating either alone.

Sober living and aftercare

Four sober living homes provide structured, substance free housing for people leaving treatment. Ongoing aftercare includes counseling and peer support. These support mechanisms help protect your recovery over the long term.

Specialty Programs in Fall River

Several Fall River programs offer tailored care to specific groups and substances along with general treatment. The grid below shows the number of specialty services.
