I've had to do medically supervised detox 4 times. Once was covered by insurance, and the other 3 were covered by my provincial health insurance. it depends on what your addicted to, and how badly your addicted whether or not you need supervised detox. If it's alcohol and you get really bac shakes when you don't drink, I'd recommend it, because you can be at risk of a seizure from stopping. Cost sucks but have you tried looking into charities like the salvation army, I know here they do a lot of drug and alcohol treatment programs and they might be an option.

Good luck.
