Drug Addiction Facts

  • All stimulants, whether prescription or illicit such as methamphetamine, work by increasing dopamine levels in the brain; dopamine is a brain chemical which has to do with pleasure, movement, and attention. This is what produces a high when abused.
  • People in clubs who abuse codeine cough syrup normally mix their syrup with soft drinks or cocktails, while polydrug users mostly drink their syrup undiluted.
  • Some inpatient programs offer additional services, like meditation, animal therapy, gourmet cooking, crafts or community service.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to intensity of care, because the individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to remain in a treatment center while receiving rehab services. Even though this might appear perfect it may not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in rehab need to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug rehab programs have the staff or resources to cater to the requirements of Spanish speaking clients, but luckily there are more and more programs that are able to do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Therapy, study data and the like are actually very often available in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which provide inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people face. Likewise, rehab programs will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehab facilities will take Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present any other type of private medical health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehab program which will get better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in setting up the person's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment programs. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program which is inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations for example how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a good center they like and speak with a rehab specialist to find out if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular substance abuse treatment solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs and also partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some limitations concerning how long a stay in inpatient drug rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered prior to starting treatment 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 offered by many different drug rehabilitation facilities in an effort to help individuals afford rehab where this might not have been possible initially. For example, one client's fee for rehab might be different and lower than somebody else whose finances are better making them more prepared to spend the money for full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional factors besides income including amount of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
