Before you can overcome alcohol and drug addiction, you must first understand their causes. Each person is different in how they succumb to drug abuse or addiction. We discuss how drugs can affect your body, what causes people to turn to them, and how you can recover from alcoholism or other substance abuse disorders.
Treating the Underlying Reasons for Addiction
People use substances of abuse to obtain quick highs, relieve stress, and to cope with other medical conditions. Co-occurring mental illnesses can be exacerbated by alcohol and other substances. We offer help for all aspects of addiction.

Supporting Long-Term Recovery
Recovery is a continuous journey. Being surrounded with support makes it easier. You can expect to be able to transition smoothly from treatment to recovery and introduce you into support groups. Support is available to you, regardless if you are in recovery yourself or supporting someone else.
A small percentage of addicts seek treatment, despite the perceived high costs. Although rehab's cost is minimal, it is still much less than the social and health costs that could be incurred if you choose to avoid treatment. These negative consequences can be avoided by seeking help as soon as possible.
Millions of Americans live with an addiction every day. A U.S. surgeon-general report from 2016 estimates that almost 21 million Americans suffer with a substance use disorder. Only 10 percent receive treatment for substance abuse.
What is the reason? This is partly because of the cost. The cost of treatment was a major factor in the fact that almost 40% of Americans with substance use disorders didn't get to rehab between 2011-2014. They either couldn't afford it, or they didn’t have insurance.
The cost of treatment can be far lower than the cost associated with addiction. 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. People suffering from severe substance use disorders may need more intensive and extended treatment. Standard treatment is generally more expensive than intensive care.
Detox
Detoxification refers to the removal of drugs from the body. Based on information from drug treatment facilities throughout the United States and estimates of daily costs, a 30-day detox can cost between $250 and $800.
Residential Treatment
The cost of basic residential treatment which includes assessments and monitoring around-the-clock is typically between $2,000-$20,000,000. Long-term residential care that lasts 60 to 90 days may be twice as expensive.
Luxury rehab facilities may charge more than $25,000 per month for 30 days. Private treatment centers usually charge less.
Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient care allows people to stay at home while receiving treatment. Patients learn how to live drug-free at home through a series of appointments. Outpatient care is often available for as little as $5,000 per month. Outpatient treatment may be available at some facilities for up to $10,000.
Intensive Outpatient Rehab
Intensive Outpatient Treatment is a more complete version of outpatient services. It usually involves several appointments per week that take approximately three hours each. For 30 days, this level of care may cost you between $3,000 to $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 usually costs between $350- $450 per daily.
Medication-Assisted Opioid treatment
A U.S. Department of Defense report from 2016 estimated the costs of various opioid treatment programs.

Cost-Free Programs
Some facilities offer payment assistance, or sliding-fee scales. Treatment centers can be costly. Other facilities offer programs for free, funded by state taxes. These programs, which are state sponsored, often have long waiting list.
For those in recovery, support groups such as Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous can be a great option. These 12-step programs have been helping millions of people to achieve and maintain sobriety for more than 60 years through regular meetings. There are some faith-based organizations that offer free treatment.
