Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it.

Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which provides the insurance plan.
