Most people will not ask what treatment costs out loud, and it is usually the first thing on their mind. Detox is the first and highest level of care a person gets when they go to an addiction rehab program. Some people try to detox at home, and home detox carries real risk. The question that comes up when you are deciding between home and Pines Recovery Life is “How much does rehab cost?” There are a few parts to the answer. What should be clear by the end of it is that if you or someone you love has a substance use disorder, there are always options for treatment, and cost should not keep anyone from calling.
What is sobriety worth to you?
It is easy to ask what rehab costs. The money is not the biggest cost in this. It is a real factor and we would not pretend otherwise, but most people never run the other side of the ledger. What happens to your finances, your career and your relationships if you do not get sober?
Tens of millions of people struggle with a substance use disorder every year, meaning an addiction to drugs or alcohol, and only a small share of them find the help they need. For some the reason is a belief that the cost would be too high, or that insurance would not cover it. A treatment facility worth anything puts getting people help ahead of what it bills, and the team at Pines Recovery Life knows what addiction actually costs a person.
Financial risks
Treatment is costly. So are drugs and alcohol. Whatever the substance, continued use drains a bank account over months and years, so not getting treatment usually ends up costing more.
Social costs
It is not easy to watch someone you love fill their body with toxins, shop for doctors, lie and steal. One by one, a person with addiction pushes away the people who care about them.
Not going to detox and rehab can cost you your savings, your job and the people around you. Is the price of detox worth more to you than all of that? We hope not.
What your payment covers
Whether paid by insurance or out of pocket, every client at Pines Recovery Life pays for quality treatment and care. Every client gets medical assessments, 24/7 access to trained and certified medical professionals, all meals while in treatment, and recreational activities. Depending on what they need, clients may also have access to medications. The final amount due varies with the length of treatment and the services actually provided.
Why not save money and detox at home?
Home detox is a real option for some people, and it carries health and financial risk. Depending on the substance you are coming off, the side effects can be serious. Alcohol withdrawal can bring on seizures, and it can kill. Try it at home and you may end up in the emergency room anyway, which can cost as much as a medical detox facility or more. Think hard about the risk, and about who is around to help you, before you decide.
