Learn Why Affordable Addiction Treatment Isn’t As Hard To Find As You Think

Getting the right treatment is the key to recovering from addictions of all kinds. But the high costs of many inpatient and outpatient treatment programs can make it seem impossible to get the help you need.

Affordable addiction treatment isn’t as hard to find as you might think, though. Call our helpline to find treatment near you 800-430-1407Who Answers?. Options such as sliding fee scales at private rehabs and free drug rehab programs for the financially strapped can put substance abuse treatment within the reach of just about everyone who needs it.

What Kind of Treatment is Right for You?

The first step toward finding affordable rehab programs is to decide what kind of treatment is best for you and your unique circumstances. Residential, or inpatient, rehab programs offer the “gold standard” of addiction treatment, with stays ranging from 30 days or less to longer terms of 6 months or more. Partial hospitalization programs typically offer the same services as a full residential rehab, but clients are able to spend nights and weekends at home. And outpatient rehabs offer counseling, medication management and other therapeutic services for people who continue their regular home and work lives during treatment.

Although the full costs of these programs, especially private inpatient rehabs and partial hospitalization treatment, can be high, a variety of little known financial support options can put your treatment choice within reach.

Private inpatient rehab program costs can reach $10,000 or more for a 30-day stay, and although outpatient programs typically cost less, fees for counseling and other services can still reach thousands of dollars over time. But many rehab programs offer sliding fee scales, payment plans, or outright scholarships for people with serious financial hardship and a demonstrated need for services. Contact the facility directly for information on options for financing your treatment.

Insurance Coverage for Rehab Services

Depending on your health insurance, your rehab services might be entirely or partially covered. Most leading insurers now include at least some coverage for rehab costs and related medications, with a co-pay.  If you’re over 65, Medicare can pick up all or most of the costs of inpatient rehab at participating facilities, as well as outpatient rehab services such as counseling and some medications. Medicaid, a healthcare program for those with very low income, can also cover some or all costs of drug and alcohol treatment in many states. Contact the Medicare or Medicaid offices in your state to find out what services are covered and how to apply.

Free Drug Rehab Programs

For those with very limited income, a variety of free, state funded inpatient and outpatient drug rehab programs are available. These programs typically offer standard addiction treatment services and medication management, but the waiting list for inpatient programs can be long. Referrals to these programs often come from social services or the justice system, but anyone with a history of addiction and financial hardship may be eligible.

Some nonprofit organizations and private institutions such as churches may also offer free or low cost addiction treatment, or cover some funds to pay for it. These organizations may offer support to specific populations, such as pregnant women, people with HIV/AIDS, or those of a particular religious faith, so it’s important to check qualifications before applying.

Many people who are struggling with addiction don’t get help because they think treatment costs more than they can afford. But affordable addiction treatment options ranging from payment plans and sliding scale rehab programs to free drug rehabs can put affordable addiction treatment within reach of just about everyone.
