Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in several settings along with different rehab lengths and plans to suit the various demands of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being included in many insurance companies, you don't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to level of care, since the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehab program while receiving rehabilitation services. Even though this may seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of environment than many people in recovery have to have to experience a productive rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can pick which rehab facility they wish to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options to enable them to move ahead in their lives without having to be penalized further.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab as part of a court order to satisfy part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol treatment often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when cooperating with drug and alcohol rehabilitation requirements enforced with them as part of sentencing especially naturally when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment facility which is within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions including the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent center they like and speak with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will take care of it.
