Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services in terms of intensity of care, because the individual can maintain their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation center while receiving rehabilitation services. Even if this may seem ideal it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehab require to have a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues are what are known in the field of drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must handle both disorders when it's in rehab to find resolution simply because one typically triggers the other. Fortunately, there are many drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs who are able to specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders face so that they can not just become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not wish to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Gays and Lesbians

It is crucial that gays and lesbians obtain quality treatment services in a treatment setting which is discreet and has rehabilitation professionals at their disposal who understand the unique problems that they experience in life. Because substance abuse for gays and lesbians is oftentimes triggered by the challenges they face due to their sexual preference, a program that can help them handle these issues and give them the peace of mind that they've lacked before arriving in rehabilitation could be a crucial part of recovery for gay and lesbian clients.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who battle with drug abuse could have distinctive obstacles they have to conquer during treatment, which treatment specialists within the rehab they choose to be a part of must be keen of to ensure a full recovery is achievable. So for seniors and older adults, it is advisable to pick a rehab which is familiar with helping seniors and older adults deal with the distinctive life and substance abuse problems that these clients face which might include a broader spectrum of solutions including health care and the like.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage simply because they can choose whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many men and women face. In addition, treatment centers will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain substance abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are 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 could be some restrictions concerning how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehab is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it is clear how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation center of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option made available from many different alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in order to help individuals pay for rehabilitation where this may not have been doable initially. For instance, one client's fee for rehabilitation could possibly be different and lower than someone else whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay for the full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional factors in addition to income including amount of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
