Drug Addiction Facts

  • Snorting or oral ingesting meth produces euphoria but not an intense rush such as that which is experienced through smoking or injecting the drug.
  • Research of long-term recreational Ecstasy users has found that this type of use results in increased rates of depression and anxiety, even after quitting Ecstasy.
  • Sometimes the bottles used to produce meth using the "shake and bake" method explode, badly burning the meth cook and anyone else in the line of fire.

With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being covered by many insurance companies, you don't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Outpatient

Although this may seem perfect it will not provide the required change of surroundings than lots of people in treatment need to have a successful rehabilitation.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to rehab as a term of their sentencing. Quite often, the offender can select which rehabilitation facility they would like to attend. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from reduced sentencing options to enable them to move ahead in their lives without having to be penalized further.

Spanish

Not all drug rehab facilities have the staff or resources to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clientele, but fortunately there are more and more programs that are able to do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than any other time. Therapy, study info and the like are actually very often obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available nationwide.

Other Languages

In each and every city in America there is someone fighting drug use that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who may require rehabilitation in whatever language it is they are fluent in to ensure their needs can be catered to properly during treatment. Thankfully, there are lots of drug and alcohol rehab facilities that have counselors on staff who speak other languages to make drug treatment the best experience possible for any individual. Simply discover a quality drug rehab program and find out if it is feasible to receive rehabilitation in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but individuals really have a much more leverage because they can select whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. Likewise, rehabilitation centers will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to pay for a more quality treatment center which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some type of alcohol and drug rehab service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab center that's within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions for example how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they like and meet with a rehabilitation specialist to find out if their insurance will take care of it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option made available from numerous drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in order to help individuals pay for rehab where this may not have been possible initially. For example, one client's price for rehab may be different and less than another individual whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay the full expense of treatment. Registrars consider additional circumstances besides income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost using the sliding scale.
