Insurance Coverage

Private insurance
One of the best ways to pay for rehab in Florida is to use private insurance, which can pay for some or all of the cost. Contact your insurer to get full details, such as what centers are in-network with your plan and what out-of-pocket costs you might be responsible for.
Self-pay options
Using self-pay in Florida to pay for rehab means writing a check, using a medical loan, or having money electronically sent to the treatment center. Be sure to check on the fee structure, which may depend on the level of care.
