Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of intensity of care, because the individual can keep their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to stay in a treatment program while receiving rehab services. Even if this might seem perfect it might not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in rehab require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders are what are recognized in the field of alcohol and drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must deal with both disorders when it's in treatment to find resolution simply because one typically exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are numerous drug and alcohol treatment programs who can specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face in order to not only become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never want to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

Besides ASL, such services can include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the help they require in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, treatment programs will often offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present another kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may choose to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation facility that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug and alcohol rehab programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in setting up the individual's rehab plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as 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 and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some type of drug and alcohol treatment service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers. Individuals could have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program that's inside their network of providers and there can be other restrictions including just how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a quality center they like and speak with a treatment counselor to ascertain if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular substance abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities and also partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some restrictions regarding how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it's clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehab facility of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility made available from a number of drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in order to help clients afford treatment where this may not have been doable originally. By way of example, one client's fee for rehab might be different and lower than another person whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay the full expense of treatment. Registrars consider additional circumstances besides income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)
