There has been dramatic growth in drug treatment programs in the past 30 years. There are more than 11,000 drug treatment facilities In the United States. There is a wide range of financial variables among these. The cost usually depends on the patient's particular situation. Cost is affected by the patient's length of stay at the drug treatment center which is affected by the severity of their illness. That is why it is often times hard to give an exact price until that patient is assessed by a professional. Some of the financial variables include Medicaid, Medicare, state funded, state insurance (non-Medicaid), private insurance, military insurance, and self pay.
