Does Insurance Pay for Rehab?
For health insurance questions, there isn’t always a simple answer. In most cases, insurance will cover at least part of an addiction treatment program. Because there are countless HMO and PPO programs and government programs like Medicare and Medicaid, individual plans will have different coverage stipulations. Individuals must meet their deductible and then pay a co-pay percentage based on their plan.
Not all recovery programs accept the same insurance. That’s why it’s important to talk to a clinic and your insurance company before enrolling to understand out-of-pocket costs. Government programs can help demystify insurance language and answer questions about coverage.
How to Pay for Rehab
Insurance may not cover all of a recovery program. There are, however, other ways to help support recovery, such as:
- Choose the Right Program for Your Budget: Often, outpatient recovery is less expensive than residential treatment because clients sleep and eat at home. However, for those who need detox, have access to drugs at home, or lack a support system, a short residential program may cost more initially. Still, it can profoundly affect early recovery and staying sober. Both types of programs may have different insurance coverage based on individual plans.
- Federal Funding: Several federal government programs provide grants to help cover treatment. These fund specific clients like postpartum mothers entering a state-run recovery center.
- Crowdfunding: It’s no secret it takes a community to stay sober. The lack of universal health insurance means crowdfunding platforms can be a great way to lessen the cost of rehab and feel more supported by your network.
- HSA and EAP Funds: Many people have health savings accounts as part of high deductible insurance plans. These plans may cover fewer rehab costs. However, HSA funds can be spent on treatment programs. Similarly, if your job has an EAP program, help may be available.
These are only a few ways to pay for rehab. Before enrolling in a program, it’s important to honestly assess your needs, budget, and what it could cost you not to enter treatment. For many, the benefits of paying some out-of-pocket rehab expenses far outweigh addiction costs.
