Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are accessible to anybody who has to be safely managed through detox services when heavily addicted to drugs and/or alcohol, or who requires a better spectrum of care such as somebody who has a dual diagnosis and also requires mental health solutions during their treatment process. There are both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services available.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment solutions regarding level of care, as the individual can preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to remain in a treatment program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this may appear perfect it might not provide the required change of atmosphere than many people in rehabilitation have to have to experience a successful rehabilitation.

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 address both disorders when it's in treatment in order to find resolution due to the fact one often exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are many drug and alcohol treatment programs that can specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face to enable them to not only become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse because of the challenges their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can often be difficult among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL as well as other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse treatment is needed. Other than ASL, such services may include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are obtaining the support they need in drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, treatment facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol rehab programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in setting up the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered 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 rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only within the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug rehab service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment facilities. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment facility that's inside their network of providers and there might be other limitations like just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a good program they prefer and meet with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular substance abuse rehab services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some restrictions regarding how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered prior to starting rehab so that it is clear the length of time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation center of choice.
