Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage simply because they can choose whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women face.

Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some form of drug treatment service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab programs. Individuals might have to participate in a drug rehab program that is in their network of providers and there might be other limitations including just how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a good program they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

Military Insurance (E.G., Va, Tricare)

Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers along with partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some limitations concerning just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and every one of these questions can be answered prior to starting treatment so that it's clear just how long and individual can remain in the treatment facility of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

By way of example, one client's price for rehab could possibly be different and less than somebody else whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay for the full cost of rehab. Registrars take into consideration variables aside from income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
