Drug Treatment Help Request

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present some other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality treatment center which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug treatment facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only in the state which offers the insurance plan.
