Many substance abuse treatment facilities in the United States offer payment assistance to men and women struggling with drug or alcohol addiction and want to get help. The person in need of rehabilitation can select a rehab facility which ideally fits their situation, meaning the treatment curriculum and design of the program will provide them the best results. The addicted person can then talk to one of the treatment professionals at the drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility to discuss what kind of payment assistance options are available or that they qualify for. The financial department in most drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs are more than willing to work with potential clients to get them started by offering payment assistance, and if this is unavailable, treatment professionals will often work with the individual to locate an equivalent or comparable treatment facility which is more affordable or that can offer workable financing options so that they can receive the rehabilitation they so desperately need.
