Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation 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 because they can choose whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment programs will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehabilitation facility that will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Private Health Insurance
