Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services regarding level of care, because the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to be in a treatment facility while receiving treatment services. While this might appear perfect it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than lots of people in treatment require to experience a successful rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but people actually have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. In addition, rehabilitation programs will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present some other type of private health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality treatment center which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol rehab facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in establishing the person's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some sort of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program that's within their network of providers and there may be other limitations such as the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent center they like and speak with a rehab specialist to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some limitations concerning how long a stay in inpatient drug treatment is permitted, and every one of these questions can be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it is clear how long and individual can remain in the rehab facility of preference.
