It is not unusual for people involved in substance abuse to exhaust all resources on their addiction. When it comes time to get help in a Dover drug rehab center, there may be nothing left to pay for such treatment. If the addicted individual is not covered by private health insurance in Dover, they will need to self pay in order to receive rehabilitation services. Self pay implies that the individual will need to come up with the resources to pay for the costs of drug treatment, costs which can 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 discounted rate or sliding scale fee. These payment assistance options for self pay clients are usually decided based on each individual's circumstances which can include household income as well as other possible financial resources.
