Addiction Treatment Service Areas Across Montana

New Frontier Recovery Center sits on a private property in Huntley, Montana, a short drive east of Billings. From that single location we admit adults who travel in from across the state for medically monitored detox and inpatient residential treatment. Some come from the neighborhoods of Billings, twenty minutes away. Others drive several hours from communities that have almost no local withdrawal management. This page maps where our patients come from and what the trip looks like depending on the distance.

Montana is a large, rural state with limited residential addiction treatment capacity, so travel is often part of the plan rather than a barrier to it. For people nearby, our facility is close enough to keep family involved. For people farther away, the distance itself can help by putting space between early recovery and the environment that surrounded the substance use. We coordinate admission timing by phone before anyone makes the drive, and we verify benefits confidentially first. Please note that we do not provide transportation, so families arrange travel into the Billings area.

How Distance Shapes Admission

For communities inside Yellowstone County, such as Billings, Lockwood, and Laurel, our facility is a routine drive and family involvement stays practical. For communities an hour or more out, such as Red Lodge, Livingston, and points farther across the state, the admissions team confirms a bed and verifies coverage before travel so the trip is made once, with a plan in place.
