Medicaid

Some treatment centers accept Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present some other kind of private health insurance.

If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some kind of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab programs.

Sliding Fee Scale
