Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but individuals really have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. Likewise, treatment centers will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present some other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation facility that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug treatment facility.

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug treatment centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in setting up the individual's rehabilitation strategy.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some form of alcohol and drug treatment service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab programs. Individuals may have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehab center that is in their network of providers and there might be other limitations including how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select an excellent center they prefer and consult with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility made available from many different alcohol and drug treatment programs in an effort to help clients afford rehabilitation where this might not have been possible originally. As an example, one client's fee for rehab could be different and less than someone else whose finances are better which makes them better able to pay the full cost of rehab. Registrars take into account variables besides income including number of dependents to determine the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
