Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services regarding level of care, because the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation center while undergoing treatment services. Although this may appear ideal it might not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in treatment need to have a successful rehabilitation.

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 alcohol and drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must deal with both disorders during rehabilitation in order to find resolution simply because one usually exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are many drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs who can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues face to enable them to not merely become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not wish to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug abuse due to challenges that their impairment impose on them. While detection of the issue can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and also other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse treatment is needed. Other than ASL, such services may include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are obtaining the support they require in drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but people actually have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many men and women face. In addition, rehabilitation facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another form of private medical insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality treatment center that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehab facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when 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 setting up the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may 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 rehab, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug and alcohol treatment service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals might have to take part in a drug rehabilitation program that is inside their network of providers and there may be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent facility they like and meet with a rehab specialist to find out if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers 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 might be some restrictions as to how much time a stay in inpatient drug rehab is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before beginning treatment so that it is clear just how long and individual can stay in the rehab center of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option offered by many different drug and alcohol rehab facilities to help help clients afford treatment where this might not have been possible originally. For example, one client's fee for treatment might be different and another person whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay for the full cost of rehab. Registrars take into account additional circumstances in addition to income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
