Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, rehabilitation programs will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present some other form of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation program that will get better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only inside the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug and alcohol treatment service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab centers. Individuals may have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment center which is within their network of providers and there may be other limitations for example how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they like and speak with a treatment counselor to determine if their insurance covers it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility available from many different drug treatment centers in order to help clients afford treatment where this might not have been possible originally. For instance, one client's price for treatment could be different and lower than someone else whose finances are better which makes them better able to pay for the full cost of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration other factors aside from income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost using the sliding scale.
