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 Altamonte Springs, Florida drug treatment facility, there may be nothing left over to cover the costs of such treatment. If the person is not covered by private health insurance in Altamonte Springs, 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 financial resources to cover the costs of drug rehabilitation, costs which can vary depending on the rehabilitation type which is being considered. If the self pay option is the only way to pay for drug treatment, 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.
