Drug Treatment Help Request

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are accessible to anyone that needs to be safely managed through detoxification services when intensely dependent to drugs and/or alcohol, or who requires a broader spectrum of care such as somebody who has a dual diagnosis and also needs mental health services as part of their rehabilitation process. You can find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services available.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs have the staff or resources to focus on the demands of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more facilities that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than previously. Counselling, study data and so on are now frequently available in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which provide inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is available too nationwide.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs will take Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present another kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehabilitation facility that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab facility.

Medicare

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

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug treatment service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs. Individuals might have to participate in a drug treatment center which is inside their network of providers and there might be other limitations like the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance covers it.
