What to Do If Insurance Coverage for Addiction Treatment Runs Out
When you realize that you need addiction treatment, you may not have considered how to pay for treatment. You may have been focused on overcoming denial and finding a rehab center that you forgot to consider the cost. So, how to pay for it is not something that you have given a lot of attention to, but we can help you navigate this issue.
How to Pay for Addiction Rehabilitation without Insurance
Obviously, if you have insurance that is the first option you want to use. Feel free to call our toll-free helpline so we can explore your insurance options with you. You need to understand exactly what your insurance will cover and which rehab facilities your insurance will work with. When you explore your insurance coverage, you will learn about deductibles, co-pays, and get the list of services that your insurance company will cover. Once you know what that cost is, you need to get a complete understanding of what the costs are to obtain quality addiction treatment. Again, we can help you by providing you a variety of rehab options.
Once you know the differential between what the total costs are and what your insurance company will cover, you then have an understanding of how much money you need to fill the gap. Some people are fortunate enough to have a friend or family member who has the financial means to either give or lend the money. It makes sense that you need to be invested in your recovery, so don’t overlook the option to take a loan from a friend or family member.
Another avenue to explore is what assets you have: a car, timeshare unit, jewelry, high end sporting equipment, etc. Take a critical inventory of everything that you own to determine if selling some of these items might generate the money that you need. If you continue with your addiction, odds are very high that you will sell these items in the future to acquire drugs, so be willing to acknowledge that your stuff may serve a better purpose if you use it to generate money for rehab.
Be sure to discuss payment plans with any potential rehab facility. The bottom line is some level of rehab is better than no rehab, so if your first choice addiction treatment facilities are simply outside of your budget, look at other options.
