Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a variety of settings with various rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the varying demands of clients with any type of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential programs now being included in many insurance plans, there is no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to stay in a rehab facility while receiving rehab services. Although this may appear ideal it will not provide the required change of surroundings than a lot of people in recovery require to have a productive rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage simply because they can choose whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many men and women face. In addition, rehab facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug rehab programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in setting up the person's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some form of drug treatment service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab center that is within their network of providers and there can be other restrictions including how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select a good program they like and consult with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular substance abuse treatment solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some limitations as to how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug treatment is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it is clear how long and individual can stay in the rehabilitation center of preference.
