With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance plans, there is no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who wants it.

When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application.

Individuals may have to participate in a drug rehab facility which is in their network of providers and there can be other limitations like the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they like and speak with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

As an example, one client's fee for treatment may be different and less than another person whose finances are better which makes them more prepared to pay the full cost of rehab. Registrars consider additional circumstances besides income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
