Well, that's about what we expect, right?

Having private insurance through a job is a handicap , for example any type of substance abuse treatment will not accept private insurance- you have to be on the state to get anything covered.   I lost my job in april, and COBRA mandates I keep my jobs policy until next April. Meanwhile I'd like to do a month of rehab but I can't because the job policy doesn't cover it and I made too much between Jan 1 and April that I'm ineligible for state assistance.

I know this post is a bit older but if you are still seeking a month in rehab many facilities offer scholarships. I have worked in the field and have many friends who still do. Almost no facilities advertise this but many do. I know it differs state by state.

Some places are cash only. Some only take state insurance and private insurances are paying for less and less time.

I was just discussing this with a friend who works at a long term treatment center and they told me private insurance companies are horrendous to deal with and they end up not getting paid for people who clearly need help. 

I am unsure your location but would look for state run rehabs, they usually can/will help you out if you can get the right person on the phone.

I hope you are doing well and were able to get in somewhere.
