Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions regarding level of care, because the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a treatment facility while undergoing treatment services. Although this may appear perfect it may not provide the required change of environment than lots of people in rehab have to have to have a successful rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse due to the problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem can be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and also other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is required. Aside from ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are receiving the help they require in drug treatment.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. In addition, rehabilitation centers will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present any other type of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may choose to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehab facility which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with setting up the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility made available from a variety of drug rehabilitation centers in order to help individuals pay for treatment where this might not have been possible initially. By way of example, one client's price for rehab could possibly be different and lower than someone else whose finances are better making them better able to spend the money for full price of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration other factors aside from income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
