Cash or Self-Payment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Index, WA.

If a person's health insurance won't cover the cost of substance abuse treatment, they are forced to find some way to find the funds for rehabilitation through cash or self-payment. Some substance abuse treatment facilities in Index provide free treatment, and these facilities are typically state funded or affiliated with a church or similar organization. If services aren't free in such an institution, it is often severely discounted.

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

If a person receives treatment on an urgent basis in an emergency room setting, and they don't have insurance, it is typical for the person 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 rehabilitation, is the wide variety of rehab options to select from including effective long-term residential Treatment facilities and high-end and luxury treatment programs.
