Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab services regarding level of care, because the individual can maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehab services. While this might seem ideal it might not provide the required change of environment than many people in rehabilitation require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders are what are known in the field of drug and alcohol rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must tackle both disorders while in rehabilitation to find resolution simply because one usually exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are many alcohol and drug treatment facilities that can specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues face to be able to not just become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation as part of a court ruling to fulfill a part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehabilitation often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug treatment specifications enforced with them in sentencing especially of course when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the problems that their impairment impose on them. While detection of this problem can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL and other assistance services available for them when substance abuse rehab is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are receiving the help they require in drug and alcohol treatment.

Spanish

Not all drug rehab centers have the staff or wherewithal to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clientele, but fortunately there are more and more centers that are able to do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than any other time. Counselling, study information and so on are now frequently available in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is available too around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage because they can choose whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, treatment centers will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab facilities accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality treatment center that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehab centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in establishing the individual's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other type 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 treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some form of alcohol and drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals might have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab program which is inside their network of providers and there might be other limitations such as just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a good center they like and consult with a rehab specialist to determine if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular substance abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs 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 representative. There can be some limitations about how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug treatment is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it's clear just how long and individual can stay in the treatment program of preference.
