Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab services with regards to level of care, for the reason that individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to stay in a treatment facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this might appear ideal it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehab need to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug use issues are what are known in the field of drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must handle both disorders when it's in rehab to find resolution because one typically exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are several drug and alcohol rehab centers who can specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues face to enable them to not just become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not feel the need to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, treatment programs will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present any other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehab facility that will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at alcohol and drug treatment centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with establishing the person's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may qualify for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug rehabilitation facility that's in their network of providers and there might be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they like and meet with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs and also partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some limitations about how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it is clear how long and individual can stay in the treatment program of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option made available from many different alcohol and drug treatment centers in an effort to help clients pay for rehab where this might not have been possible originally. For instance, one client's fee for rehab might be different and lower than someone else whose financial situation is better making them better able to spend the money for full price of rehab. Registrars consider variables aside from income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities provide payment assistance to help clients who might not have enough money to self pay for rehab or whose medical insurance won't supply coverage or total coverage for his or her stay. For instance, Occasionally insurance only pays for a short-term facility when in reality a long-term program will probably be the more ideal choice. To see what payment assistance can be available, like a sliding fee scale, talk with the facility for particulars.
