Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in many different settings and with different rehab lengths and plans to suit the varying demands of clients with any kind of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being covered by many insurance companies, there is no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of intensity of care, since the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehab program while receiving rehabilitation services. Even though this might seem perfect it might not provide the much needed change of surroundings than lots of people in rehab need to have a successful rehabilitation.

Adolescents

When adolescents get involved in any kind of drug use, it is crucial that they obtain high quality care to halt the situation in its tracks so that it doesn't worsen and maybe put their future in jeopardy. Due to the fact adolescent substance abuse which persists often carries on into adulthood, mothers and fathers must continue to be vigilant and get their adolescent rehab as soon as an issue is noticed in a program which addresses adolescent drug use. Many facilities which treat adolescents offer both inpatient and residential treatment, that has been shown to be the most effective settings for rehabilitation clients of this age.

Women

Women need to have high quality rehabilitation in rehab but may also need special attention to the distinctive issues they face for their gender. Men and women not just face varying and unique problems in life due to gender, but in addition may abuse drugs and alcohol for unique reasons. drug rehab programs which appeal to women and the specific and unique needs that women face often helps enormously on the women's road to long term sobriety and a higher standard of living.

Men

Just as men and women encounter varying and different challenges in life which can be specific to their gender, women and men may also face unique challenges in rehabilitation that are gender-specific, and that's why a program specifically designed with these unique needs and obstacles in mind can be be extremely helpful for someone looking for a powerful rehabilitation option.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage because they can select whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people face. In addition, treatment facilities will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present some other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may wish to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehab center which will get better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify 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 take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals might have to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment center that's inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations like the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they like and consult with a treatment counselor to determine if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular substance abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some limitations about how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehab so that it's clear how much time and individual can stay in the treatment facility of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility offered by many different drug and alcohol rehab programs in an effort to help clients afford treatment where this might not have been doable originally. For example, one client's price for rehabilitation may be different and another person whose financial situation is better which makes them more prepared to pay for the full cost of treatment. Registrars take into account additional circumstances aside from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.
