Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but people actually have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. Likewise, treatment programs will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment programs accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment center which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab program.

Medicare

If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals could have to take part in a drug treatment program that is in their network of providers and there could be other restrictions such as the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good center they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation specialist to find out if their insurance will take care of it.

Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers in addition to partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant.
