Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. Likewise, treatment programs will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehab center that will get better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation program.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain substance abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some restrictions about just how long a stay in inpatient drug treatment is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin treatment so that it's clear how long and individual can remain in the rehab program of choice.
