It is not unusual for people engaged in substance abuse to deplete all resources on their addiction. When it comes time to get help in an Ontario Center drug treatment program, there may be no money left to pay for such treatment. If the addicted individual is not covered by private health insurance in Ontario Center, they will need to self pay in order to obtain rehab services. Self pay means that the individual will need to come up with the financial resources to cover the costs of drug treatment, 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 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 slide scale fee. These payment assistance options for self pay clients are usually decided based on each individual's circumstances which can include household income and other potential sources of income.
