It is not unusual for people involved in substance abuse to deplete all financial resources on their addiction. When it comes time to get help in a Sandy drug rehab facility, there may be nothing left to pay for such treatment. If the addicted individual is not covered by private health insurance in Sandy, they will need to self pay in order to obtain rehabilitation services. Self pay implies that the person will need to come up with the financial resources to cover the costs of drug rehabilitation, costs which can 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 payment assistance options for self pay clients are typically decided based on each individual's circumstances which can include household income and other potential sources of income.
