Heroin Treatment Costs

There are several different types of heroin treatment. Obviously, the longer the stay the more expensive it will be. At first, it may seem as though it costs too much because the cost is relatively high for heroin treatment. Fortunately, the cost of heroin treatment eventually pays for itself. Over time, your investment will add up.

How much do you spend on your addiction now? How many job opportunities have you missed because of your addiction? All of these issues will no longer be a problem once you have beaten your addiction.

Insurance Coverage of Cost

Some insurance companies cover the cost of heroin rehabilitation. Check with your insurance agent to find out if you apply for any coverage. Some coverage includes detox, outpatient programs, medications and/or inpatient programs for a certain amount of time.

General Costs

It depends on which rehab facility you choose as to what the specific prices are. It may be quite expensive but worth it when you consider all you will be gaining. These are some approximate costs:

For a heroin outpatient drug program, the cost may be anywhere from $3,000 to $12,000. This is a large price range. It depends on several different factors:

• Length of program
• Area- major cities have a tendency to cost more (Los Angeles, New York)
• Number of extra services included in the plan.

Obviously, heroin inpatient programs are going to run a good deal more expensive than outpatient. It may run anywhere from $7,500 to $35,000. These programs take into consideration:

• Staff
• Meals
• Activities

Although it is a good deal more expensive, it offers a better chance for successfully completing the treatment program and living a drug-free lifestyle. Inpatient programs provide 24-hour care.

It is important to look into all of this information and decide what is best for your life and finances. Although beating your addiction is invaluable, it is important to know what you are getting into when you sign up for a treatment plan.
