Drug Addiction Facts

  • The desire for more diversified marijuana products with varying THC concentrations and even flavors has spurred a new market of synthetic marijuana products known as "spice".
  • Individuals who have been prescribed prescription stimulants have been known to sell their tablets to others who wish to take these drugs recreationally as a stimulant.
  • As of February 1, 2014 Canadian pharmacists will start giving out a formulation of methadone called Methadose, covered under PharmaCare, which is the same dosage but patients will only have to ingest a 10-millilitre dose of the liquid, which is about two teaspoons, instead of 100 millilitres, just under half a cup.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in many different settings and with various rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the various needs of clients with any sort of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being covered by many insurance companies, there is no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to intensity of care, for the reason that individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehabilitation program while receiving rehab services. Although this may seem perfect it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than many individuals in recovery have to have to have a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues are what are identified in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must address both disorders during rehab to find resolution because one often exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are numerous drug and alcohol rehab centers who can specifically hone in on the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face so that they can not only become abstinent but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the option or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. Often times, the offender can pick which rehabilitation facility they would like to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options to be able to progress in their lives without getting penalized any further.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehab as part of a court ruling to fulfill a part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehabilitation frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when cooperating with drug and alcohol rehab specifications enforced with them in sentencing and particularly of course when successfully completing a drug treatment facility.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present another form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may wish to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehab center which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab facility.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility available from many different drug and alcohol rehab facilities to help help individuals pay for treatment where this might not have been possible originally. For example, one client's price for rehab could be different and less than someone else whose finances are better making them better able to pay for the full cost of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional factors besides income including amount of dependents to determine the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
