It is not uncommon for people engaged in substance abuse to expend all financial resources on their addiction. When it is time to get help in an Aulander drug treatment program, there may be nothing left over to cover the costs of such treatment. If the person is not covered by private health insurance in Aulander, they will need to self pay in order to receive rehab services. Self pay means that the individual will need to come up with the financial resources to pay for the costs of drug treatment, costs which will vary depending on the treatment option 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 personal income as well as other potential sources of income.
