Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are accessible to anybody who should be safely managed through detoxification services when seriously dependent to drugs and/or alcohol, or who wants a broader spectrum of care such as somebody who has a dual diagnosis and also needs mental health services during their treatment procedure. You can find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services accessible.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions regarding level of care, for the reason that individual can preserve their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehab program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this may appear ideal it will not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehab require to experience a productive rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. In addition, treatment programs will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehab facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present any other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehab center which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in setting up the individual's rehab plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol rehab 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 could qualify for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but typically only in the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some kind of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehab programs. Individuals could have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment center that is within their network of providers and there might be other limitations for example just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a quality center they like and meet with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse rehab services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some restrictions as to how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and all of these questions can be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it's clear the length of time and individual can remain in the treatment program of preference.
