Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people encounter.

Some rehabilitation facilities accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehab program that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab program.

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may qualify for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance plan.

Registrars take into consideration other factors in addition to income including amount of dependents to determine the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
