Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a number of settings and with different treatment lengths and plans to accommodate the various demands of clients with any type of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being covered by many insurance plans, you don't have to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of intensity of care, as the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to be in a treatment center while receiving rehabilitation services. While this may appear ideal it may not provide the much needed change of surroundings than lots of people in treatment have to have to experience a successful rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, treatment centers will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present some other kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug rehabilitation programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation 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 establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered 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 rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only in the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug rehab center which is within their network of providers and there may be other restrictions like the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they like and meet with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse rehab services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations regarding just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before beginning rehab so that it is clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation program of preference.
