Drug Addiction Facts

  • Separated and divorced men and women are three times as likely as married men and women to say they had been married to an alcoholic or problem drinker.
  • Studies indicate that youth who use alcohol before age 15 are five times more likely to become alcohol dependent than adults who begin drinking at age 21.
  • While an inpatient program for addiction is meant to provide care in a hospital or clinic setting, a residential program is intended to give a more home-like, welcoming feel.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services regarding level of care, because the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to stay in a treatment center while undergoing treatment services. Even if this may appear ideal it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehab require to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues are what are recognized in the field of drug and alcohol treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must tackle both disorders when it's in treatment to find resolution because one typically exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are lots of drug and alcohol rehab programs who are able to specifically hone in on the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face so that they can not simply become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab due to a court ruling to satisfy a part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug rehab frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with drug rehabilitation requirements enforced with them as part of sentencing specifically naturally when successfully graduating a drug rehabilitation facility.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals really have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. In addition, rehabilitation centers will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals might want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehab program that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If a person 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 within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities. Individuals may have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility that is in their network of providers and there can be other restrictions like how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a quality program they prefer and meet with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option provided by a number of alcohol and drug treatment facilities to help help individuals pay for rehabilitation where this might not have been doable originally. For instance, one client's fee for rehab could possibly be different and less than another person whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay for the full expense of rehab. Registrars take into account additional factors aside from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
