How to Find Low-Cost Drug Rehab Centers in Alabama

 Low-cost drug rehab centers in Alabama use the same therapy models and treatment options that most high-end facilities use. Therapies often used include CBT, DBT, MAT, MRT, or the 12 steps of recovery. The decision to go to a drug rehab program is sometimes unfortunately based on a person’s finances. Some inpatient drug rehabilitation centers can cost anywhere from $3,000 to $50,000 a month. However, it is important to know that the higher cost does not always translate into a higher success rate. When seeking addiction treatment, the cost of the program should not dictate whether you get help or not.

Affordable drug rehabilitation centers, utilize the same therapy models as the more expensive treatment centers in Alabama. There are a few differences such as the amount of one-on-one therapy that the low-cost treatment centers offer. The usual difference is only in the amenities and activities offered. To offset the cost of treatment, a low-cost center will not have all the amenities that an expensive rehab has. The programs they offer are anywhere from 21 – 90 days long. We highly recommend staying at one of these centers for at least 28 days. A 90-day program is best.

Some programs offer work-type exchange and others may ask for you to get donations for your treatment. You will receive treatment as well as counseling. When making a commitment for treatment at one of these centers be sure to finish the program in its entirety. This will go a long way in your recovery from substance abuse.

How Much Does Rehab Cost?

When looking to enter a low-cost program there usually are some costs associated with receiving treatment at their center. Most of the state-funded treatment centers, use a sliding fee scale and are based on income and need at the time of intake. The cost can range from free of charge to around $1,000 to help cover your food and housing while in treatment. Medicaid or Medicare can also be used to pay for a low-cost drug rehab.

Private low-cost facilities are usually in smaller centers which lowers the cost due to location and type of amenities offered. These programs are the better option for those who can afford it. They usually range from about $1,500-$7,000 a month. The average price of treatment at a private treatment center is around $15,000 a month. Some of the more expensive programs can be upwards of $60,000 a month.  

Access to Recovery Vouchers

ATR or Access to Recovery is a federally funded program that offers treatment options. You can choose from their list of contracted providers. Some other programs can be accepted if the needs of the client cannot be met at one of their treatment centers. To access this service you must have an annual income that is below 200% of the Federal poverty level for your region. 

Affordable Inpatient Drug Rehab Facilities

Most people who are looking for a program in Alabama to help with their addiction, are willing to commit to 30-90 days of treatment. A longer program does not always yield a better outcome. Once a person in treatment passes the 90-day mark, it is up to the individual to apply what they have learned and move forward with their life. We can help you find an affordable drug rehab center anywhere in the USA today. Give us a call, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 

What if the person does not want help for their addiction?

Getting a person that does not want help for their addiction, to go to a rehab facility can be a bit tricky to accomplish by yourself.
