- The cost of substance use treatment can be confusing and overwhelming, but there are resources available to help you find treatment that you can afford.
Here are some tips (FindTreatment.gov, n.d.):
- Ask questions and take notes. When you're talking to a treatment provider, ask about the cost of treatment, what's covered by your insurance, and what financial assistance options are available.
- Know what kind of support you're eligible for. There are free and low-cost treatment facilities available, as well as funding for people without insurance.
- Don't let money stop you from getting treatment. There is help available, so reach out to a treatment provider today.
The Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) of 2008 requires health insurers and group health plans to provide the same level of benefits for mental and/or substance use treatment and services that they do for medical and surgical care. This means that your insurance company can't deny you coverage for substance use treatment.
