If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only in the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility that's inside their network of providers and there may be other restrictions like the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a quality center they like and consult with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.
