What self-pay (cash) usually covers, by level of care
What MAT means
Medication for addiction treatment (MAT) uses FDA-approved medicines with counseling: buprenorphine, methadone or naltrexone for opioid use disorder, and naltrexone, acamprosate or disulfiram for alcohol use disorder. 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.
