How Much Does Rehab Cost?

Addiction is not a one-size-fits-all process. Your needs in recovery are unique. They depend on many personal factors, including:

  • The severity of your addiction
  • Your mental and physical health
  • Your existing support in the community

The type of treatment you need will depend on these and other factors. These factors will also determine if you require inpatient treatment or outpatient care.

Determining the total cost of rehab can be almost impossible before you begin. However, here is an overview of the average costs of different levels of care.

Inpatient rehab

An average 30 day inpatient treatment program ranges from $20,000 to $44,000. Inpatient treatment plans typically include:

  • Round-the-clock supervision and treatment
  • Medically-supported detox programs
  • Medications
  • Mental health treatment
  • Individual therapy
  • Support groups
  • Relapse prevention therapy
  • Holistic therapies like exercise, mindfulness, and nutrition support
  • A safe, secure environment
  • Aftercare planning

The support of an inpatient rehab program can increase your likelihood of long-term recovery.

There are many types of inpatient programs that range in cost. Typically, care at more luxurious rehab centers costs more than programs in average facilities. An executive or luxury inpatient rehab may cost between $20,000 and $44,00 per month. A high-end, private luxury inpatient rehab may cost $100,000 or more per month.

Outpatient rehab

Outpatient treatment is generally less expensive than inpatient or residential programs. An average 90-day outpatient program costs between $2000 and $8000.

Many people attend outpatient substance abuse treatment programs after completing an inpatient program. Outpatient treatment can help you stay focused on recovery as you transition back into your daily life.

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT)

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) programs can increase your chance of lasting sobriety. During a MAT program, you will receive medications to reduce cravings and other withdrawal symptoms. MAT treatment is associated with better outcomes in recovery. A typical MAT program costs between $6000 and $18,000.

Partial hospitalization programs (PHP)

A partial hospitalization program is the most intensive outpatient level of drug and alcohol rehab. A PHP offers many of the same treatments as inpatient rehab. However, in a PHP, participants live at home while receiving treatment.

A typical PHP may cost between $3000 and $15,000 per month.

What Factors Affect the Cost of Rehab?

Addiction treatment options vary depending on each person’s needs. The cost of rehab depends on what rehab facilities and programs you need.

Some of the factors that affect treatment costs include:

  • Whether you need inpatient or outpatient treatment
  • The length of your treatment program
  • The treatment facility’s amenities
  • The location of the rehab center
  • The size of the facility
  • The substances you use
  • Additional medical or mental health care you require during rehab

Traveling to rehab can increase the total cost of your care.

Will My Insurance Cover the Cost of Rehab in Florida?

Substance use disorder (SUD) treatment can be life-changing. Still, many people put off getting help because they are worried about how to pay for rehab.

However, the 2010 Affordable Care Act (ACA) prevents insurance companies from denying coverage for mental health and addiction treatment. If you have private insurance, Medicaid, or other type of insurance, your plan will likely cover some or all of your rehab costs.

However, insurance plans vary. It is important to verify the details of your specific plan before beginning treatment. You may verify your insurance in several ways, including:

  • Call the number on the back of your insurance card and speak with a representative.
  • Research your plan on the insurance company’s website
  • Ask the insurance specialists at The Best Treatment to verify your insurance

You can still get the treatment you need if you do not have insurance. You may be eligible to apply for scholarships, enroll in state or federal insurance programs, or have a payment plan. Contact the intake staff at The Best Treatment to explore your options.
