It is not unusual for individuals involved in substance abuse to deplete all resources on their addiction. When it comes time to get help in an Okeechobee, FL. 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 Okeechobee, they will need to self pay in order to receive treatment services. Self pay means that the individual will need to come up with the resources to pay for the costs of drug rehab, 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 treatment, potential 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 typically decided based on each individual's personal situation which can include household income and other potential sources of income.
