If a person's health insurance won't cover the cost of substance abuse rehabilitation, they have no choice but to find some way to cover rehab through cash or self-payment. Some drug and alcohol treatment centers in St. Petersburg provide free or low cost rehab, where these programs are typically state funded or part of a church or similar organization. If treatment isn't free in such an institution, it is usually made affordable through special programs.
If self-payment is doable, many facilities and rehab programs accept cash as well as credit cards and debit cards. Some families prefer making a cash payment because it provides more anonymity and privacy. Most facilities and programs won't accept checks as a form of self-payment.
If someone receives 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 upfront money or other liquid resources on hand to pay for rehabilitation, is the vast selection of rehab options to choose from such as effective long-term residential rehab programs and private and luxury rehabilitation programs.
