Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it.

The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but typically only inside the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehab service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab centers.

Individuals can choose an excellent facility they like and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to find out if their insurance will take care of it.

Military Insurance (E.G., Va, Tricare)

Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative.
