Because of the perceived high prices of addiction treatment, only a very small portion of those who need it pursue treatment. However, rehab costs are small in comparison to the health and social risks of avoiding treatment. These consequences can be prevented by getting treatment now.
Millions of Americans are living with addiction every day. A U.S. surgeon-general report from 2016 estimates that almost 21 million Americans suffer with a substance use disorder. Only 10% of these people receive treatment for substance abuse.
Why? The reason is partly due to the high cost of treatment. Nearly 40% of Americans who had a substance abuse disorder and needed treatment in 2014 didn't attend rehab because they couldn't afford it or did not have insurance.
The cost to treat addiction is significantly lower than that of treatment. A lot of people are unaware that insurance can greatly reduce the cost for rehab. New laws mandate that insurance companies cover addiction and mental healthcare treatment.
What is the Cost of Rehab?
Each level of treatment in addiction centers across the country is different. People suffering from severe substance use disorders may need more intensive and extended treatment. Intensive treatment tends to be more expensive than standard care.
Detox
Detox is the process by which drugs are removed from the body. It also helps to overcome withdrawal symptoms. Based on data from drug treatment facilities in the United States, the average cost for a 30-day detox program is $250 to $800 per person.
Residential Treatment
Basic residential treatment is estimated to cost between $2,000 and $25,000 and often includes assessments and 24-hour supervision. Long-term residential therapy, which can last between 60 to 90 minutes, may be twice the cost.
For 30 days, some luxury rehab facilities can charge as much as $25,000 However, most private treatment centers charge less.
Outpatient Rehab
Individuals can receive outpatient treatment while they live at home. Patients can learn to live at home and avoid the need for a hospital by attending several appointments. A three-month outpatient program can often cost around $5,000. Outpatient treatment can be as high as $10,000 at some facilities.
Intensive Outpatient Rehab
Intensive Outpatient Treatment is a more complete version of outpatient services. It usually involves several appointments per week that take approximately three hours each. This type of care costs anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 for 30 consecutive days.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
Partial hospitalization programs are for patients who require intensive treatment during the day and can return to their home in the evening. PHP costs approximately $350-$450 per day.
Medication-Assisted Opioid treatment
A U.S. Department of Defense 2016 report estimated the cost of various opioid addiction treatment programs.

Programs for free
Treatment centers can be very expensive. However, some facilities offer payment assistance. Other locations offer programs that are completely free of charge and covered by state taxes. These state-sponsored programs are often subject to long waitlists.
For those in recovery, support groups such as Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous can be a great option. These 12-step programs have been helping people in recovery for more than 60 decades. They offer regular meetings that help them stay sober. There are some faith-based organizations that offer free treatment.
