Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of level of care, because the individual can preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. While this may seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in rehab need to have a productive rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many people face. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehab programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present some other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehab center that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug rehabilitation centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the center 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 person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug and alcohol rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals could possibly have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center that's within their network of providers and there could be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a good facility they like and consult with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain drug abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for 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 just how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions can be answered before beginning rehab so that it's clear how much time and individual can remain in the treatment facility of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option made available from a variety of alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities to help help clients afford rehab where this might not have been doable originally. For example, one client's fee for rehabilitation could possibly be different and less than another person whose financial situation is better making them better able to spend the money for full expense of rehab. Registrars take into account additional circumstances in addition to income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost using the sliding scale.
