Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility.

Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug treatment centers.

Individuals can select a quality program they prefer and consult with a rehabilitation counselor to determine if their insurance will take care of it.
