Understanding the Cost of Addiction Treatment

Yes, most insurance plans are required to cover addiction treatment under the Affordable Care Act. Coverage levels vary, but typically include detox, inpatient, and outpatient services. We recommend verifying your specific benefits as coverage can range from 50-100% depending on your plan.

There are many options available including payment plans, sliding scale fees, state-funded programs, and scholarships. Many facilities offer financial assistance programs. Don't let cost prevent you from getting help - our admissions team can work with you to find affordable options.

Reputable facilities are transparent about costs. Always ask about: medication costs, lab work fees, aftercare planning, special dietary needs, and any additional therapeutic services. Get a written estimate that includes all potential charges before committing to a program.

Many facilities offer payment plans that allow you to pay over 6-24 months. These may require a down payment (typically 10-25%) with the balance paid monthly. Some facilities offer 0% interest for a certain period. Credit checks may be required for longer-term plans.

Not necessarily. While luxury amenities can make treatment more comfortable, the most important factors are: accreditation, evidence-based practices, qualified staff, and appropriate level of care. Focus on finding the right clinical fit rather than the most expensive option.

Yes, addiction treatment is considered a qualified medical expense for both Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA). You can use these pre-tax dollars to pay for treatment costs, including deductibles and copays.
