Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals encounter.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present any other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals may choose to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehab center which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab facility.

Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment program that's in their network of providers and there may be other restrictions including how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent facility they like and speak with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance will take care of it.
