Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings along with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the various needs of clients with any sort of and level of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential programs now being included in many insurance plans, there is no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Halfway House

A halfway house is a location which allows for a smooth transition when someone has become sober by themselves or has finished an alcohol and drug rehab facility and needs help re-acclimating into a regular lifestyle. Residing in a halfway house, or sober living facility as they are sometimes called, is part of sentencing if someone has been found guilty of drug charges as well. If help is needed locating a halfway house, talk to a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program and speak with a rehab specialist who can point you towards the right direction.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to intensity of care, as the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation program while receiving rehab services. Even if this might seem ideal it will not provide the required change of environment than many people in recovery need to have a productive rehabilitation.

Residential Short-Term Treatment (30 Days Or Less)

Residential short-term treatment for 30 days or less is an alternative which allows men and women in treatment to have the much required change of environment necessary 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 rehab for 30 days or less may not be lengthy enough for particular individuals with more extreme addiction and dependency issues, and this should at all times be looked into at the end of the 30 days to establish if more extensive rehabilitation is required.

Residential Long-Term Treatment (More Than 30 Days)

Residential long-term rehab, which lasts for more than thirty days, is an option that delivers the commensurate intensity of care and suitable environment for anybody experiencing a significant addiction and dependency issue. Because individuals will remain in a residential long-term treatment center for 120 days and even longer in some instances, these kinds of facilities provide all the amenities needed to help client's feel as relaxed and amenable as possible while also providing quality rehabilitation to assist them to overcome their habit once and for all.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage simply because they can choose whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, rehab facilities will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab programs will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present any other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehab facility which will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug treatment facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehabilitation 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 if they might be eligible for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only in the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab centers. Individuals may have to take part in a drug rehabilitation center which is inside their network of providers and there might be other limitations such as just how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good center they like and consult with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance covers it.
