Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but individuals really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many men and women encounter.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present some other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may choose to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug treatment program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If a person has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only inside the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab programs.
