Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of intensity of care, since the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation center while receiving rehab services. Even though this may appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in rehabilitation require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders are what are known in the field of drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must deal with both disorders while in rehabilitation to find resolution simply because one often exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are several drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers who can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face in order to not only become abstinent but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Gays and Lesbians

It is crucial that gays and lesbians acquire quality treatment services within a rehab environment that is discreet and has rehabilitation specialists at their disposal who understand the unique problems that they have to deal with in life. Because drug abuse for gays and lesbians might be triggered because of the problems they face due to their sexual preference, a program which can help them resolve these problems and give them the confidence they may have lacked prior to arriving in rehab can be quite a crucial aspect of rehab for gay and lesbian clients.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation 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 treatment requirements enforced on them as part of sentencing and also naturally when successfully graduating a drug treatment facility.

Spanish

Not all drug rehabilitation centers possess the staff or wherewithal to focus on the needs of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more facilities that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than any other time. Counselling, study info and so on are actually very often available in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which deliver inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehab is available too nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a much more leverage because they can select whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. In addition, treatment centers will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation programs accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present another kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality treatment center which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehab program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could be eligible for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only inside the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehab service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment facilities. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug treatment program which is within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they prefer and speak with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance covers it.

Military Insurance (E.G., Va, Tricare)

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular drug abuse treatment services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs and also partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations regarding just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it is clear the length of time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation center of choice.
