Drug Addiction Facts

  • The success rate of inpatient programs is a topic for debate among supporters and opposition.
  • Some methadone maintenance programs allow for long-term program patients to take home 3 days worth of doses.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services in terms of intensity of care, since the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to remain in a treatment center while receiving rehabilitation services. While this might appear ideal it might not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in recovery have to have to have a successful rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug abuse as a result of problems that their impairment impose on them. While detection of this issue is often difficult among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse treatment is needed. Besides ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are obtaining the help they require in alcohol and drug treatment.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug treatment facilities have the staff or resources to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clients, but thankfully there are more and more facilities that are able to do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than any other time. Counselling, study info and stuff like that are now frequently obtainable in Spanish in both long and short terms programs which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is available too around the country.

Other Languages

In each and every city in America there's someone experiencing drug use that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who might require treatment in whatever language it is they are fluent in to ensure their needs can be catered to properly while in rehabilitation. Thankfully, there are lots of drug treatment facilities who have counselors on staff who speak other languages to make alcohol and drug treatment the most effective experience possible for anyone. Simply find a quality drug treatment facility and inquire if it is possible to receive rehabilitation in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many people face. In addition, rehab programs will usually provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present any other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may choose to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehab facility that will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug rehabilitation programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in setting up the person's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.
