New York Empire Drug Rehab Coverage
If you’re covered by the New York Empire Plan and seeking support for addiction recovery, you may be eligible for comprehensive outpatient treatment services through your insurance. At The ARTS, we help individuals access high-quality care with minimal barriers—no matter where they’re coming from.
The Empire Plan is a health insurance program for New York State employees and their families. Administered by the New York State Department of Civil Service, it offers broad, nationwide coverage—including benefits for mental health and substance use disorders.
Because the Empire Plan includes out-of-network and out-of-state options for medically necessary care, members often have flexibility to receive treatment beyond New York—especially in states like California.
