Drug rehab cost varies based on a variety of different factors: some are free while others cost thousands of dollars. The good news is that no matter the financial capability of a person, a treatment that fits him or her budget exists, and there are groups that can help identify the right treatment.

Rehab is often viewed as costly, but in reality it’s not as expensive as an addiction. Addicts are more than likely to lose their income owing to their inability to hold a job. This lack of productivity coupled with health and legal problems can cost more than rehab ever will.

Drug Rehab Cost With Insurance

The most common way to pay for rehab is via health benefits. Your insurance can often pay for the treatment. The amount, however, will depend on the coverage of the insurer. Types of insurance providers that cover addiction include Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, state-financed health insurance, and military insurance. Here is an overview of the

Drug Rehab Cost With Other Sources

Not every person has an insurance plan, and for those individuals, one option is to look for a free center that helps those with low incomes. The downside of this option is often the waiting list as these centers are often low on funding. In such cases, one can also look at financing options to fund his or her treatment.

Cost of each treatment

The following figures are the estimated costs of each type of treatment.

Drug Detox Cost

Medical detoxification is the first stage of drug addiction treatment. Most inpatient and outpatient rehab centers offer this treatment in their programs. Price of detox treatment ranges from $500 to $1,000 a day.

Inpatient Drug Rehab Cost

Our Orange County inpatient drug rehab program is designed to help patients recover safely with the support of medical staff and counselors. A 30-day inpatient drug rehab costs $20,000.

Outpatient Drug Rehab Cost

Outpatient recovery programs are ideal for patients that require flexible addiction treatment at home. They are generally less expensive than inpatient treatment, with some costing only $5,000 for a three-month program.

Drug Rehab Medication Cost

A number of medications are used in drug treatment, and these will affect the overall cost of the treatment. These medications can cost thousands per year.

Factors Effecting Drug Rehab Costs

The type of treatment is not the only factor that will impact the price of addiction treatment. The overall cost can also be affected by the type of rehab center and its location. Centers in a state where the state of living is higher would often be more expensive than those in other locations. The amenities in rehab centers also play a part in increasing one’s tab. Amenities may include swimming pools, massage parlors, and tennis courts are offered at a price.
