You can pay for rehab yourself, often called self-pay or private pay. Costs vary widely by level of care, location, length of stay and amenities, so outpatient care usually costs far less than residential treatment. Many programs offer payment plans or discounts, and you can often use HSA or FSA funds for treatment. Read the full guide →
