Drug Addiction Facts

  • In heavy marijuana users, traces of THC can sometimes be detected for weeks after they have stopped using marijuana.
  • Inpatient rehabilitation programs encourage patients to go through family therapy. Family therapy sessions helps heal the damage that addiction has done to the family's relationships with one another.
  • Care must be taken to properly dispose of a fentanyl patch in order to prevent it from being accidentally discovered by children, as exposure to even a small amount of fentanyl gel can lead to a fatal overdose in children.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab services with regards to intensity of care, since the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a rehabilitation facility while undergoing treatment services. Even though this may seem ideal it might not provide the required change of environment than many people in recovery have to have to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems are what are identified in the field of drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must handle both disorders whilst in rehabilitation to find resolution simply because one usually exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are many alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities that can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face to enable them to not merely become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol treatment facilities possess the staff or resources to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more programs that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than previously. Therapy, study data and the like are now very often accessible in Spanish in both long and short terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish treatment is available too nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of treatment or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people really have a much more leverage simply because they can choose whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. In addition, treatment centers will often provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present some other kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehabilitation facility which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol treatment centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with setting up the person's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't an option. If a person has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could be eligible for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehab centers. Individuals might have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab facility which is inside their network of providers and there can be other limitations including how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a good program they prefer and consult with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.
