Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings along with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the various needs of clients with any sort of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being included in many insurance plans, there's no need to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab solutions regarding level of care, as the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehab program while receiving treatment services. Although this might appear ideal it might not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in rehab need to have a productive rehab.

Adolescents

When adolescents get involved in any sort of drug abuse, it is important that they acquire quality care to halt the problem in its tracks so that it doesn't worsen and maybe jeopardize their future. Due to the fact adolescent substance abuse which continues often continues into adulthood, parents must continue to be astute and get their adolescent treatment as soon as an issue is observed in a center which handles adolescent substance abuse. A lot of programs which deal with adolescents offer both inpatient and residential rehab, that has been shown to be the perfect settings for rehab clients of this age.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the choice or ordered to rehabilitation as a term of their sentencing. Often times, the offender can select which treatment program they would like to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options to be able to move ahead in their lives without having to be penalized any further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but people in fact have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, treatment facilities will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehabilitation program that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with setting up the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered through Medicare Part B.

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 an option. If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug and alcohol rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals might have to participate in a drug rehabilitation center which is in their network of providers and there can be other restrictions like the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a good center they like and consult with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain drug abuse rehab services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers as well as partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some limitations as to just how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before beginning rehab so that it's clear how long and individual can stay in the rehabilitation facility of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility provided by a variety of alcohol and drug rehab centers in an effort to help individuals pay for rehab where this might not have been possible originally. By way of example, one client's fee for rehab might be different and another person whose finances are better making them better able to spend the money for full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional factors besides income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
