As patients begin planning for treatment, one of the first questions they have is how to pay for it. Fortunately, this treatment is typically covered by insurance. That’s especially true in the United States, which means that substance use disorder treatment is available to virtually everyone. If you’re not sure how to get started, take a closer look at insurance coverage options.
Before you can submit a claim to your health insurance provider, you might need to pay a deductible. This is essentially a predetermined cost that comes out of pocket before your health insurance policy will cover remaining costs. Not all health insurance policies include deductibles, but many do.
It is essential to take a look at your individual policy and look for a deductible. Sometimes, the deductible could be a few hundred dollars. In other cases, it could be thousands. Make sure you know what to expect so you’re not surprised when you take the next step toward treatment.
Figuring out insurance coverage and how to pay for rehab can be overwhelming. Even if it seems complicated, financing should never stand in the way of your recovery. Fortunately, this isn’t something you need to work out on your own.

The cost of treatment is going to be based on your specific insurance benefits. We try to be accommodating and make treatment affordable and accessible. If you provide your insurance information we can go over your specific benefits with you. Typically there is a co-pay and deductible and each depends on what you have spent that year to date and what your insurance plan requires. Paying out of pocket is an option at $800 a day but, we recommend using your insurance benefits as it will be significantly less expensive.
You may have to pay a portion at the time of your admission. If you provide your insurance benefits our financial counselors can verify your coverage and assist you with answering any questions you have regarding payments and out of pocket costs. We work with people on financial plans to help with the cost if needed.
