It can help make men and women in recovery stay supported rehabilitation course of action without upsetting other activities they may need to sustain during rehab. Partial hospitalization/Day Treatment is also a possibility for those who have finished an inpatient or residential center and want assistance with the smooth transition back into an average drug free way of life.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders are what are known in the field of drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must tackle both disorders while in treatment in order to find resolution because one often exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are numerous drug and alcohol treatment facilities who are able to specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues face in order to not only become abstinent but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but individuals really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment centers will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present another form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals might want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehab center which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehabilitation facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehab facilities. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center which is inside their network of providers and there might be other limitations including just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select an excellent program they prefer and consult with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some restrictions regarding the length of time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you begin treatment so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation center of preference.
