Drug Addiction Facts

  • Individuals who abuse prescription stimulants to get high generally crush and then snort the pills or mix the crushed powder with water and inject the drug.
  • A driver who is under the influence of marijuana loses the ability to "track" (stay in lane) through curves, to brake quickly, and to maintain speed and the proper distance between cars is affected.
  • Snorting cocaine can result in a chronically runny nose, nosebleeds, loss of smell, hoarseness, and problems swallowing.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab solutions with regards to level of care, as the individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this might seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehab require to have a productive rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues are what are recognized in the field of drug and alcohol rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must deal with both disorders whilst in rehab to find resolution due to the fact one often triggers the other. Luckily, there are lots of alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs who are able to specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues face so that they can not simply become abstinent but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present some other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment program which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug rehabilitation centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with establishing the person's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other type 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 can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only within the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities. Individuals might have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment center that's inside their network of providers and there might be other limitations for example the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they like and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to find out if their insurance covers it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option provided by many different alcohol and drug rehab centers to help help clients afford rehab where this may not have been doable initially. By way of example, one client's price for rehab could be different and less than someone else whose financial situation is better which makes them more prepared to pay for the full cost of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration additional factors apart from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
