If someone's health insurance won't cover the cost of drug rehab, they are forced to discover a way to cover treatment through cash or self-payment. Some substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Amherst offer free treatment, where these facilities are usually state funded or affiliated with a church or similar organization. If services aren't free in such a facility, it is often made affordable through special programs.
If self-payment is an option, many facilities and programs accept cash as well as debit cards and credit cards. Some families prefer making a cash payment because it ensures more privacy and anonymity. Most facilities and rehab programs will not accept checks as a form of self-payment.
When someone receives 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 available to pay for rehab, is the diversity of rehab options to select from including successful long-term residential rehab programs and private and luxury rehab programs.
