Housley and Reaves

Housley and Reaves is a SAMHSA-registered addiction-treatment facility in Bentonville, AR. The facility's programming is outpatient (Outpatient, Dual Dx), not residential. This page frames the questions that matter most when evaluating a specific program — the ones that separate useful candidates from marginal ones.

Care levels at Housley and Reaves

Housley and Reaves is an outpatient-focused program (Outpatient, Dual Dx) — patients live at home or in sober living and attend treatment sessions. This level of care is clinically appropriate for mild-to-moderate substance use disorder, or for patients stepping down from residential. ASAM Criteria 4e is the benchmark framework for matching patients to appropriate intensity. Most major payer medical-necessity documents reference it. An outside ASAM-aligned assessment, prior to admission, is the protection against misplacement.

Insurance and payment

Housley and Reaves accepts both Medicaid and commercial insurance, which is the broadest payer profile and typically correlates with programs that operate at scale across the economic spectrum. Before admission, request a written Verification of Benefits from the facility's utilization-review team. Verbal VOB is where most post-admission cost-sharing disputes originate. Written documentation settles them.

Before you call

Three pre-admission questions for Housley and Reaves: (1) at what ASAM 4e level are you admitting me, and what is the clinical rationale; (2) can you provide written Verification of Benefits for my specific plan; (3) what is your MAT policy for opioid use disorder — specifically, do you continue buprenorphine or methadone during residential programming. If the clinical situation involves opioid use disorder, confirm explicitly whether Housley and Reaves offers medication-assisted treatment — buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone. Programs that do not are operating outside the current standard of care.
