This blog looks into addiction treatment and the various options that patients have to cover the cost of the same. For many people suffering from substance abuse and addiction, it is beyond their means to afford treatment, and as a result, they do not seek treatment. The level of care required for their condition dictates the cost of rehab. However, various options are available to those needing treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Some private health insurance plans offer some coverage for addiction treatment, and a few cover them entirely. Affordable Care Act (ACA) promises coverage for diseases like alcoholism and other addictions. Other options are Medicare, a federal health insurance program, and Medicaid, a state and federal government-funded program like the Tenncare addiction treatment plan offered by the State of Tennessee.
