About self-pay (cash)

Self-pay means paying the program yourself instead of billing insurance. Some people choose it for privacy or because their plan doesn't cover the program, and some programs offer a lower cash rate.

What self-pay (cash) usually covers, by level of care

Levels of care

Addiction treatment runs from detox and residential care, where you stay at the program, to PHP, IOP and outpatient counseling, where you live at home. Medication for addiction (MAT) can go with any of them. See IOP vs PHP vs outpatient care.

Ask the program for its self-pay price in writing and what it includes, and whether it offers a payment plan or a sliding-scale fee.

Call a program and ask

Call the program and ask them to verify your benefits; it's free and takes a few minutes.

Do you accept self-pay (cash) for substance use treatment, and for which levels of care?
Are you in network for my exact plan, and is prior authorization needed?
What would I pay a day or a week, and when is the next opening for an assessment?

Call the program yourself: Find Care doesn't take your insurance details, collect your name or pass anything to a program for you. This is general information, not a guarantee of coverage. What your plan pays depends on your plan, your state, whether the program is in network, and whether your plan decides the care is medically necessary. Call the number on your card, then the program, before you start.
