Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people face. Likewise, rehab programs will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.
