Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings along with various treatment lengths and plans to accommodate the various needs of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance companies, there is no need to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Outpatient

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

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the problems their impairment impose on them.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, treatment centers will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present some other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality treatment facility which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at alcohol and drug treatment facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with setting up the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug treatment facilities. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug rehab facility that's inside their network of providers and there might be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select an excellent center they prefer and meet with a rehab specialist to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain substance abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some restrictions about how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehab is allowed, and all of these questions can be answered before beginning rehab so that it is clear just how long and individual can stay in the treatment facility of preference.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug rehab facilities provide payment assistance to help individuals who might not have sufficient money to self pay for rehab or whose health insurance won't provide coverage or total coverage for their stay. As an example, Occasionally insurance only covers a short-term program when in reality a long-term facility will likely be the more ideal option. To determine what payment assistance might be available, such as a sliding fee scale, talk with the program for details.
