It is not uncommon for individuals engaged in substance abuse to expend all resources on their addiction. When it comes time to get help in an Albuquerque, NM. drug rehab facility, there may be nothing remaining to cover the costs of such treatment. If the individual is not covered by private health insurance in Albuquerque, they will need to self pay in order to obtain treatment services. Self pay means that the individual will need to come up with the money to cover the costs of drug rehab, costs which will vary depending on the rehabilitation type which is being considered. If the self pay option is the only way to pay for drug rehabilitation, prospective treatment clients can work with treatment counselors to find out if any payment assistance can be offered in the form of a reduced rate or sliding scale fee. These options for self pay clients are usually decided based on each individual's circumstances which can include household income and other potential financial resources.
