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