Cash or Self-Payment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Palos Verdes Estates, CA.

When a person's health insurance won't cover the cost of substance abuse rehab, they are forced to discover a way to cover treatment through cash or self-payment. Some drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Palos Verdes Estates provide free or low cost rehabilitation, where these programs are most commonly state funded or affiliated with a church or similar organization. If services aren't free in such an institution, it is usually severely discounted.

If self-payment is an option, most facilities and programs take cash as well as debit cards and credit cards. Some clients prefer making a cash payment because it ensures more privacy and anonymity. Most facilities and programs won't accept checks as a form of self-payment.

If a person needs treatment on an urgent basis in an emergency room setting, and they don't have insurance, it is common for patients 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 advantage of self-pay and cash for those who have the upfront money or other liquid resources on hand to cover the cost of rehab, is the wide variety of treatment options to choose from including effective long-term residential rehab facilities and high-end and luxury rehabilitation centers.
