There are several options for people to pay for drug rehab if they don’t have private insurance, including:

• Checking to see if you qualify for Medicaid or Medicare if you’re not already signed up with one of these programs. These federal and state health insurance programs service low-income people and anyone else receiving federal income assistance.
• Applying for insurance under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
• Reaching out to a family member for a loan; they can make financial arrangements directly with the center.
• Finding out if the treatment center that you’re interested in has special financing programs for people who don’t have insurance. You may be able to come up with a payment arrangement that works for you; some programs offer a sliding scale too.
