Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present some other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation center which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment facility.

Medicare

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab centers.
