Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it.

If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance.
