Residential short-term treatment for 30 days or less may not be prolonged enough for certain individuals with more extreme addiction and dependency concerns, and this should at all times be looked into after the 30 days to determine if more extensive rehab is needed.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility.
