Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings with various treatment lengths and plans to suit the varying demands of clients with any kind of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential programs now being included in many insurance plans, you don't have to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of intensity of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to be in a treatment program while undergoing rehab services. Although this may seem ideal it might not provide the required change of environment than many people in rehab require to have a productive rehab.

Native American Or Alaska Native Languages

Native Americans and Alaska Natives generally speaking struggle with alcoholism and other drug use problems at much higher rates than other portions of the population. The problem is treating Native Americans and Alaska Natives in a program which provides rehab using their languages, in order to be understood and also have counselors available that they may talk freely with. While these kinds of rehabilitation centers are rare, you'll find centers accessible which deliver rehabilitation services in the language of Native Americans and Alaska Natives is going to provide far better outcomes for these cultures.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many men and women face. Likewise, treatment centers will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehabilitation center that will get better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at alcohol and drug treatment facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in setting up the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehab service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers. Individuals might have to take part in a drug rehab center that is inside their network of providers and there might be other restrictions for example just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a quality center they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation counselor to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some restrictions regarding just how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehab is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it's clear just how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option offered by many different alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in an effort to help individuals pay for treatment where this may not have been possible originally. As an example, one client's fee for rehab may be different and lower than another person whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay for the full price of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account variables in addition to income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
