Drug Addiction Facts

  • Many individuals who transition to heroin from prescription opioid use report that they had crushed prescription opioid pills to snort or inject the powder, which provided their initiation into injection heroin use.
  • The type of fentanyl associated with recent overdoses is not produced for medical use, but produced in clandestine laboratories and mixed with (or substituted for) heroin in a powder form.
  • Inpatient rehab programs usually last for 30 to 90 days, although some programs may last for as long as a year. The time of the program depends on the patient's specific needs and whether or not the patient has made enough progress.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in many different settings along with various treatment lengths and plans to suit the various demands of clients with any sort of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance plans, there's no need to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who desires it.

Detoxification

Detoxification from alcohol and drugs is a process which can be made a lot more manageable and safely overseen when in a proper detoxification or drug and alcohol treatment center. Sometimes detoxification isn't risk-free, and even with good intentions individuals who proceed through detoxification on their own in order to get sober may very well be putting their health or perhaps their lives at risk. It is usually far better to look for detoxification services in a professional center in order to avoid such hazards as well as have a smooth transition from detoxification to rehabilitation in a quality drug and alcohol rehab center.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of intensity of care, because the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to stay in a rehab facility while receiving rehab services. While this may seem perfect it might not provide the required change of environment than many people in rehabilitation have to have to have a successful rehabilitation.

Residential Short-Term Treatment (30 Days Or Less)

Residential short-term rehabilitation for 30 days or less is a possibility which enables individuals in recovery to have the very much needed change of environment needed to have a chance at remaining sober. Residential treatment is the premiere option because individuals can feel comfortable and at home while receiving services. Residential short-term rehabilitation for 30 days or less may not be long enough for certain people with more serious addiction and dependency concerns, and this should always be evaluated at the end of the 30 days to determine if more extensive rehab is required.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues are what are recognized in the field of drug and alcohol rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must handle both disorders during rehab in order to find resolution because one typically triggers the other. Luckily, there are numerous drug and alcohol rehab facilities who can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues face in order to not only become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and substance abuse due to problems that their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and also other assistance services readily available for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is necessary. Aside from ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the help they need in drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. Likewise, treatment programs will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may be eligible for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only within the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some form of drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug treatment facilities. Individuals could have to take part in a drug treatment program which is in their network of providers and there could be other limitations including the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select an excellent facility they like and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to ascertain if their insurance will cover it.
