How to Pay for Substance Abuse Treatment
Most people with insurance do not need to consider how to pay for treatment. Drug and alcohol treatment is an automatic coverage for insurance plans.
In 2010, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was signed into law. This requires health insurance providers to cover drug and alcohol rehab. They must provide for every part of rehab, including:
- Inpatient rehab
- Outpatient treatment and therapy
- Detox services
Some insurance companies cover the cost of sober living homes. Other people in the Erie area attend a PHP or an IOP because of cost.
How to Pay for Rehab Near Erie Without Insurance
Rehab can be expensive, but there are ways to pay for it even if you do not have insurance. There are different avenues to take to get the help you need.
Some examples of help that is available to those without insurance are:
- If you have savings, you can use that to pay for treatment.
- You can take out a personal loan to help cover the cost of some rehab programs.
- There is money available through a SAMHSA grant. Every year, SAMHSA sets aside money for people in this situation.
- You may be able to ask a friend or family member to help pay for the cost.
- Many programs will accept credit cards as a form of payment.
The Erie Department of Social Services or a local community center are good places to start. They may know of resources in your area that can help you afford rehab.
Addiction Treatment Options Nearby
There are different options available for drug and alcohol rehab. These are what your area offers.
Inpatient Treatment
Inpatient rehab programs require patients to stay on campus for around 28 days. They will actively take part in various forms of therapy. They work directly with psychiatrists and doctors to help manage medication.
Many times, inpatient programs offer detox services. This is a safer way for a patient to detox rather than discharging them when detox is finished.
Detox Centers
Often, patients will need to go through detox before starting their program. Detox is necessary for some drugs because they can suddenly be dangerous for the patient.
The detox treatment options help to lessen the severity of withdrawal symptoms. The following require detox:
- Alcohol
- Heroin
- Stimulants
- Prescription painkillers
Every patient and every drug is different. The detox process can take days to weeks to complete.
Intensive Outpatient Programs
Intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) are more flexible in how they approach treatment. Patients may be referred to an IOP after an inpatient program as the next step in their recovery. This may also be an excellent first step for someone who has never been to any rehab program.
The IOP schedule is typically 3-5 days a week in the evening. Sessions can last up to 3 hours and can run for 12 weeks.
IOPs provide structure. They give people the freedom to continue with work or other daily activities.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) are more intensive. This is a daily, Monday through Friday program.
Initially, the patient may be at the facility the whole day. As they progress, the time spent there can lessen.
Medication management and therapy are a part of PHPs. These are good for people who do not need inpatient services but may need more than what IOPs offer.
Outpatient Therapy
Outpatient treatment is typically for patients who need less care. This is ongoing therapy for someone who has been through a more intensive program. Patients often see their therapist 1-3 times per week.
Outpatient therapy is not recommended for someone new to recovery.
Sober Living Homes
Sober living homes are residential homes where those in recovery can stay. They are a safe place where the residents must remain clean and sober. They are expected to pay rent, contribute to the home and attend treatment.
