These individuals must handle both disorders when it's in rehab to find resolution simply because one typically triggers the other. Fortunately, there are several drug and alcohol treatment programs who are able to specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face to be able to not simply become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the option or ordered to treatment as a term of their sentencing. Often times, the offender can pick which rehabilitation facility they would like to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options so that they can progress in their lives without having to be penalized any more.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehabilitation as part of a court ruling to satisfy part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug treatment frequently receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when being cooperative with drug rehabilitation requirements enforced on them in sentencing especially naturally when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug treatment program.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use as a result of challenges that their impairment impose on them. While detection of this issue can often be difficult among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL and other assistance services available for them when substance abuse rehab is needed. Besides ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the support they require in drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. Likewise, treatment centers will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present any other type of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality rehab program that will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the facility is 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 strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other kind 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 costs of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only in the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug treatment service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab centers. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center that's inside their network of providers and there can be other limitations for example the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a good program they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some restrictions concerning how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is allowed, and all of these questions can be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it's clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation program of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option made available from many different drug and alcohol rehab centers to help help individuals afford rehab where this might not have been doable initially. As an example, one client's price for rehabilitation might be different and less than another individual whose financial situation is better which makes them better able to spend the money for full cost of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account other factors apart from income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
