Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Self Payment

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities accept Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present some other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may choose to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehab program which will get better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol rehab facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in establishing the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

Sliding Fee Scale

Registrars consider variables apart from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)
