Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a much more leverage because they can choose whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many men and women encounter.

Medicaid

Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality treatment facility which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility.
