Cash or Self-Payment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Agency, IA.

If someone's health insurance won't cover the cost of drug or alcohol treatment, they must discover a way to pay for treatment through cash or self-payment. Some drug rehab programs in Agency provide free or low cost rehab, whereas these programs are usually state funded or part of a church or similar organization. If treatment isn't free in such a facility, it is usually severely discounted.

If self-payment is doable, many facilities and rehab programs take cash as well as credit cards and debit cards. Some people prefer paying in cash because it ensures more privacy and anonymity. Most facilities and rehab programs won't take 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 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 individuals who have the upfront money or other resources on hand to pay for rehab, is the vast selection of rehab options to select from including effective long-term residential rehabilitation programs and high-end and luxury rehab centers.
