Paying for a Specialized Treatment Facility in Wausau, WI.

Due to the current state of the economy, many alcohol and drug rehab programs have developed methods for helping addicts handle the cost of treatment. Some have even put up generous financing options in conjunction with major lenders to help those affected by addiction - either directly or indirectly - spread out their payments over a given time period.

Therefore, you should never give up hope that you won't receive the treatment that you need for your drug and alcohol addiction just because you do not have health insurance. There are many drug and alcohol treatment programs that will work with you in one way or the other until you receive the best quality treatments available.

Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facility Expenses in Wausau, WI

So, exactly how expensive is, say, a thirty day short-term rehabilitation program? Generally speaking, 30-day treatment programs might take various forms, and the total cost will be determined by two main factors, including the level of care (such as a long-term versus an outpatient program) as well as the environmental settings that the rehab facility will offer.

For the 4 main levels of care in Wausau, the general ranges might include:

a) Outpatient Treatment

In an outpatient program, you will be able to visit the rehab facility about 5 days a week for a set period of time to see a counselor and to take any medications that might have been prescribed for your drug or alcohol addiction.

Although there are some free outpatient treatment centers, you can expect to pay somewhere between $1,000 and $10,000 for such a program. The cost will be based on on the type of program you choose.

b) Intensive Outpatient

The next level up from outpatient programs in Wausau, intensive outpatient rehabilitation centers will allow you to keep up with your normal daily schedule. However, you will have to spend a few of hours at the treatment program on most days of the week.

Intensive outpatient rehab centers will usually cost anywhere between $3,500 and $11,000.

c) Partial Hospitalization

In a program such as this, you will be required to spend a minimum of 3 days a week at a treatment facility for close to 5 hours over each session. During this time, you will have therapy sessions, learn about addiction and drug/alcohol avoidance strategies, and acquire skills to cope with your substance use disorder.

The costs at partial hospitalization programs typically run anywhere from $7000 to $20,000.

d) Residential - Inpatient

As an inpatient at a residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility in Wausau, you will be living full-time at the facility, and have all your needs met - including meals, board, exercises, and therapy.

Most inpatient drug rehabilitation facilities vary depending on the center and the types of services provided. Usually, cost for inpatient facilities can range from $25,000 up to over $100,000.

Additional Costs

a) Admission Fees

Most of the best substance abuse treatment centers charge some type of admission fee ranging anywhere between $3,000 and $4,000.

b) Detox

This is the first step to recovery, and it will ideally come before you start full treatment for substance abuse. Detoxification can cost somewhere in the range of $300 to $800 per day. Therefore, you should expect to pay something between $1,500 and $4,000 with an average of about five days for detoxification. However, this amount may go up if you require an emergency detox.

c) Pharmacotherapy

Most of the drug and alcohol rehab centers you will come across today are likely to prescribe medication to help you during both detox and rehabilitation. In case you encounter difficulties and complications during your detoxification, you might also require further medical attention and other medication.

d) Aftercare

Even after you complete treatment for your alcohol and drug addiction, you should still continue taking the steps required to help you maintain your sobriety and continue rebuilding your life.

Many people, for instance, choose to join in free 12-step programs such as Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous. Others go to transitional living homes where they get to live in environments that are focused on helping every resident to stay sober. Like other types of housing, these settings vary drastically in terms of price based on the kind of home you join.

While thinking about whether the price of substance abuse treatment center in Wausau is worth it, you should remember to consider the bigger picture. Over the short term, full rehabilitation can seem like a large investment. However, without it, you may end up paying even more.
