It is often free through government subsidized programs. There are private rehabs, however, that you must pay for. It also depends on whether it is inpatient or outpatient, and how long you are there. For example, 21 day program is obviously cheaper than a 90 day program.
It does work for many people. But, many, many people have to go more than once for it to “take.” Addictions are tough. The best predictors of success include readiness to change (for real) and the person’s support network (family, friends, priest, etc.).
If you are ready, please talk with your doctor or a psychiatrist. They are more than ready to help, and can recommend treatment and rehab strategies. Good luck.

Cost is going to very by type and length of treatment.
Rehab is a tool it only works if the addict is ready to stop using. People tend to think once they’ve been “clean” for a period of time they are no longer an addict or a “junkie”. If you are addicted to drugs or alcohol you are now and forever will be an addict. You have to choose to be a recovering addict and make that choice everyday. To answer your question yes Rehab works but not for everyone and not every time.
If you have medical insurance a lot of plans cover substance abuse treatment, give them a call for more info. I’m not sure if you are asking for yourself or someone else but a support system of friends and family are a must to stay clean. Good Luck!
