Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another type of private health insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehab facility that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only in the state which offers the insurance plan.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility provided by many different drug rehabilitation facilities to help help individuals pay for treatment where this might not have been doable initially. By way of example, one client's price for rehabilitation could possibly be different and lower than another person whose finances are better making them more prepared to pay for the full expense of treatment. Registrars take into consideration other factors in addition to income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug treatment programs offer payment assistance to help individuals who might possibly not have sufficient funds to self pay for treatment or whose medical insurance won't provide coverage or total coverage for their stay. As an example, Occasionally insurance only covers a short-term facility when in reality a long-term program will likely be the more suitable option. To determine what payment assistance might be available, for instance a sliding fee scale, consult the program for particulars.
