Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a variety of settings and with various rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the various needs of clients with any type of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance plans, you shouldn't have to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment solutions regarding intensity of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation facility while receiving treatment services. Even if this might seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of environment than lots of people in treatment require to have a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues are what are known in the field of drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must deal with both disorders during rehab in order to find resolution simply because one often exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are several drug and alcohol treatment centers that can specifically hone in on the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face so that they can not just become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never consider it wise to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Women

Women have to have high quality rehabilitation in rehab but may also require special focus on the distinctive challenges they face due to their gender. Males and females not just face varying and unique challenges in life due to gender, but also may abuse drugs and alcohol for unique reasons. drug rehabilitation centers which focus on women and the specific and unique needs that women encounter often helps significantly on a women's path to long term sobriety and a higher standard of living.

Men

Just as women and men encounter varying and unique challenges in daily life which are specific to their gender, men and women could also face unique challenges in rehab that are gender-specific, which is why a program specifically designed with these unique needs and obstacles in mind can be extremely ideal for someone looking for an effective rehab solution.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. In many cases, the offender can choose which rehabilitation facility they wish to attend. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from reduced sentencing options in order to move ahead in their lives without getting penalized any more.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehab as part of a court order to satisfy a part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug treatment often receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug rehabilitation specifications enforced on them as part of sentencing especially naturally when successfully completing a drug rehab center.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present some other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment center which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in setting up the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment facilities. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug treatment center that's within their network of providers and there could be other restrictions like how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a good facility they prefer and speak with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain substance abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some restrictions about the length of time a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin rehab so that it's clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility made available from a variety of alcohol and drug treatment facilities in order to help clients afford rehab where this may not have been possible originally. For instance, one client's fee for rehab could possibly be different and lower than another individual whose finances are better which makes them more prepared to pay the full expense of treatment. Registrars take into consideration additional factors besides income including number of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.
