Cash or Self-Payment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Portland, PA.

If someone's health insurance won't cover the cost of drug or alcohol treatment, they are forced to find a way to cover treatment through cash or self-payment. Some drug and alcohol treatment centers in Portland provide free or low cost rehab, whereas these facilities are most commonly state funded or affiliated with a church or similar social-betterment organization. If services aren't free in such a facility, it is commonly severely discounted.

If self-payment is doable, many clinics and rehab programs take cash as well as debit cards and credit cards. Some families prefer making a cash payment because it results in more privacy and anonymity. Most facilities and rehab programs will not accept checks as a form of self-payment.

When someone needs treatment on an urgent basis in an emergency room setting, and they don't have insurance, it is typical for the patient to be billed and required to pay at a later date. In many cases, these bills can be reduced through state run programs if the individual meets certain requirements regarding income and other circumstances.

Another benefit of self-pay and cash for clients who have the cash or other liquid resources available to pay for rehabilitation, is the diversity of treatment options to select from such as successful long-term residential rehab facilities and private and luxury rehab centers.
