Drug Treatment Help Request

Medicaid

Certain treatment facilities accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals might want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality treatment facility that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they can 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 will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only within the state which offers the insurance.
