Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only inside the state which provides the insurance.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain drug abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some limitations as to how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug treatment is permitted, and every one of these questions can be answered prior to starting rehab so that it's clear how long and individual can remain in the rehab facility of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option offered by a variety of drug treatment facilities to help help clients pay for rehab where this may not have been doable initially.

Registrars consider additional circumstances apart from income including amount of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
