Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to intensity of care, since the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. While this might seem ideal it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehab require to experience a successful rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse due to the problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL and also other assistance services readily available for them when drug abuse treatment is required. Besides ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are obtaining the help they require in drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. In addition, treatment programs will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present any other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality treatment facility which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab 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 consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in setting up the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for 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. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab programs. Individuals could possibly have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab program that's inside their network of providers and there can be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a quality center they prefer and meet with a rehab 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 expenses of particular substance abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some restrictions as to how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start treatment so that it is clear how long and individual can remain in the treatment facility of preference.
