Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual can preserve their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to be in a treatment program while undergoing treatment services. Although this may seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of environment than a lot of people in treatment need to have a successful rehab.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab as part of a court ruling to satisfy a part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehab frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug treatment requirements enforced with them in sentencing especially naturally when successfully completing an alcohol and drug treatment program.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but people really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehab facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers accept Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present some other kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehab facility which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug rehab centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in establishing the person's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only within the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some form of drug and alcohol treatment service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment center that is inside their network of providers and there can be other limitations including the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a quality facility they prefer and consult with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular substance abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs and also partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some limitations as to the length of time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you start rehab so that it's clear just how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation center of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility provided by a variety of drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in an effort to help clients pay for rehabilitation where this may not have been possible initially. As an example, one client's price for treatment may be different and less than another individual whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay the full cost of rehab. Registrars take into account additional circumstances aside from income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
