Before you can overcome drug and alcohol addiction, you need to be able to recognize their causes. Each person is different in how they succumb to drug abuse or addiction. We discuss how drugs can affect your body, what causes people to turn to them, and how you can recover from alcoholism or other substance abuse disorders.
Resolving the Root Causes of Addiction
Many people abuse substances to get highs or to deal with stress and other health conditions. Alcohol and other drugs can worsen symptoms of co-occurring disorders. We help you learn healthy ways to deal with your unpleasant emotions and treat the root causes of addiction.

Supporting long-term Recovery
Recovery is a long-term process. It is easier to have support. You can expect to be able to transition smoothly from treatment to recovery and introduce you into support groups. There are support options available, regardless of whether you are in recovery or caring for a loved one.
Because of the perceived high prices of addiction treatment, only a very small portion of those who need it pursue treatment. Although rehab's cost is minimal, it is still much less than the social and health costs that could be incurred if you choose to avoid treatment. You can avoid these problems by getting help immediately.
Millions of Americans are living with addiction every day. A U.S. surgeon général report in 2016 estimated that close to 21 million Americans suffer from substance abuse disorders. Only 10 percent receive treatment for substance abuse.
Why? The reason is partly due to the high cost of treatment. The cost of treatment was a major factor in the fact that almost 40% of Americans with substance use disorders didn't get to rehab between 2011-2014. They either couldn't afford it, or they didn’t have insurance.
The cost of treatment is far less than the cost for addiction. A lot of people are unaware that insurance can greatly reduce the cost for rehab. Insurance companies must now cover mental and addiction treatment under new laws.
What is the Cost of Rehab?
There are many levels of care at addiction centers throughout the country. Prices vary for each one. Patients with more severe substance abuse disorders will likely require intensive and prolonged treatment. Standard treatment is generally more expensive than intensive care.
Detox
Detoxification is the process of removing drugs from the body and safely ending withdrawal. According to data from drug treatment centers across the United States, a 30-day detox program costs between $250 and $800 per day.
Residential Treatment
Basic residential treatment can cost between $2,000 to $20,000. This includes assessments and supervision around the clock. Long-term residential services, lasting 60 to 90 days, can cost twice as much.
For 30 days of treatment, luxury rehab facilities may charge upwards to $25,000 However, most private treatment centers charge less.
Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient care allows patients to remain at home and receive treatment. Patients learn how to live drug-free at home through a series of 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
Inpatient intensive treatment is a higher-quality version of outpatient therapy. It typically includes multiple appointments per work week, lasting approximately three hours per day. For 30 days, this level of care may cost you between $3,000 to $10,000.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
Partial hospitalizations are for patients who can return to their homes each evening after receiving intensive treatment during daytime. PHP costs approximately $350-$450 per day.
Medication-Assisted Opioid Therapy
A U.S. Department of Defense report from 2016 estimated the costs of various opioid treatment programs.

Programs for free
Some facilities offer payment assistance, or sliding-fee scales. Treatment centers can be costly. Some facilities offer programs at no cost, which are paid for by state taxes. These state-sponsored programs often have long wait lists.
People in recovery can also turn to support groups like Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics Anonymous. These 12-step programs, which have been in existence for over six decades, have helped millions of people maintain or achieve sobriety by holding regular meetings. There are some faith-based organizations that offer free treatment.
