Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but individuals in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehab facilities will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present any other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality treatment facility which will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug treatment program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might be eligible for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some type of drug rehab service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab programs. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment program that's within their network of providers and there may be other restrictions such as the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select an excellent facility they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

Sliding Fee Scale

As an example, one client's price for rehab could possibly be different and another individual whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay the full cost of treatment. Registrars consider other factors apart from income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
