If you have insurance, there may be deductibles, co-insurance, or portions of the stay that are not covered. For some families, private pay is the primary or only option. We take this seriously and believe you should have clear choices.
Understanding your costs
As part of your admissions conversation, we will outline:
- Program rates for residential treatment
- What is included in those rates
- Expected insurance contribution, based on your benefits
- Your estimated out-of-pocket cost
These are estimates, not guaranteed prices, because insurers make the final payment decisions. We update you if there are material changes.
Financing options
Some families choose to spread their costs out over time and will opt to work through outside medical lenders or healthcare financing companies. These can include:
- Private personal loans that the patient or family uses to pay the facility directly
- Patient-financing programs that some financing brokers suggest
- Medical credit card and loan products designed specifically for healthcare expenses
Examples of well-known medical financing options that are commonly used in behavioral health and healthcare settings include:
The Place does not act as a lender and does not provide financial advice. We do not receive commissions from these lending companies. Our role is to:
- Give you a starting list of lenders that often work with rehabilitation treatment medical expenses
- Encourage you to compare terms, interest rates and fees, carefully
- Suggest questions to ask any lender before you commit
When you speak with admissions, we can share a brief summary of reputable medical lenders and typical questions to consider. The final decision about whether to use financing, and which lender to choose, is always, yours.
If you are weighing treatment and feeling anxious about the financial side, you are not alone. Many families find that once they understand their insurance benefits, the likely costs, and possible financing options, the decision becomes clearer.
