Drug Addiction Facts

Heroin purchased at street level is very rarely pure, and the average bag of heroin sometimes has less than 5% of pure heroin.
Despite popular belief, caffeine does not affect the metabolism of alcohol by the liver and thus does not reduce breath alcohol concentrations or reduce the risk of alcohol-attributable harms.
In South Florida, the number of heroin- related deaths rose by 60% between 2010-11 and 2011-12.

Self Payment

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