Before you can beat drug or alcohol addiction, it is important to understand the causes. Every individual is affected by different factors that lead you to addiction or substance abuse.

We will help you navigate your recovery, and connect you to support groups. There are support options available, regardless of whether you are in recovery or caring for a loved one.
A small number of people who are addicted to drugs and alcohol choose not to seek treatment due to the high price tag. But the cost of rehab is negligible compared with the potential social and health consequences of not getting treatment. You can avoid these problems by getting help immediately.
Millions of Americans are living with addiction every day. A 2016 U.S. surgeon general report estimated that nearly 21 million Americans have a substance abuse disorder. Only 10% receive substance abuse treatment.
Why? One reason may be due to the high costs. In fact, nearly 40% of Americans suffering from a substance-related disorder didn't seek treatment because they couldn’t afford it.
The cost to treat addiction is significantly lower than that of treatment. A lot of people are unaware that insurance can greatly reduce the cost for rehab. New laws require that insurance companies cover treatment for mental illness and addiction.
What is the Cost of Rehab?
There are many levels of care at addiction centers throughout the country. Prices vary for each one. For people with severe addictions, intensive and extended treatment may be required. Standard treatment is generally more expensive than intensive care.
Detox
Detoxification refers to the removal of drugs from the body. Based on data from drug treatment facilities in the United States, the average cost for a 30-day detox program is $250 to $800 per person.
Residential Treatment
The cost of basic residential treatment which includes assessments and monitoring around-the-clock is typically between $2,000-$20,000,000. The cost of long-term residential treatment, which lasts between 60 and 90 day, could be twice as high.
For 30 days, some luxury rehab facilities can charge as much as $25,000 Private treatment centers usually charge less.
Outpatient Rehab
Individuals can receive outpatient treatment while they live at home. Patients learn how to live drug-free at home through a series of appointments. Outpatient treatment can be as low as $5,000 for a 3-month program. Outpatient treatment may be available at some facilities for up to $10,000.
Intensive Outpatient Rehab
Intensive outpatient care is a more thorough form of outpatient healthcare. It generally involves multiple appointments per semaine that last approximately three hours each. For 30 days, intensive outpatient treatment costs between $3,000- $10,000.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
Partial hospitalization programs on the other hand are designed for patients who need to be treated intensively during the day, but can return to their normal home environment in the evening. PHP is generally between $350 to $450 per day.
Medication-Assisted Opioid Therapy

Programs that are cost-free
Even though treatment centers are expensive, many facilities offer payment assistance or sliding fees scales. Other facilities offer programs for free, funded by state taxes. These state-sponsored programs often have long wait lists.
Individuals in recovery have another option: Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous are two options. These 12-step programs have been helping people in recovery for more than 60 decades. They offer regular meetings that help them stay sober. There are also free treatment options offered by faith-based groups.
