Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of level of care, because the individual can preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to be in a rehabilitation facility while receiving rehabilitation services. Even though this may appear perfect it will not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in rehab require to have a productive rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse because of the problems that their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem can be hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL and also other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse rehab is required. Apart from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the support they require in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many men and women encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another type of private medical health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehabilitation program which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will handle 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 medical health insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug rehabilitation service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab program which is inside their network of providers and there may be other restrictions including how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a quality facility they prefer and speak with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance covers it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option available from a variety of drug rehab facilities in order to help individuals pay for rehab where this may not have been doable initially. As an example, one client's price for treatment could possibly be different and somebody else whose finances are better which makes them more prepared to pay the full cost of rehab. Registrars consider variables aside from income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
