Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of intensity of care, since the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this might appear perfect it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than many people in recovery need to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems are what are known in the field of drug and alcohol treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must deal with both disorders during rehabilitation to find resolution simply because one often exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are lots of alcohol and drug treatment centers that can specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face to enable them to not only become abstinent but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Persons With HIV/AIDS

Persons with HIV/AIDS who require drug abuse treatment will frequently require services beyond what a standard alcohol and drug rehab facility will be able to deliver. Due to the fact extensive medical solutions tend to be a vital part of the physical process of healing for addicts with HIV/AIDS, who likely have experienced a progression and worsening of the disease because of their habit, it is important that these clients get the medical care necessary together with any rehabilitation solutions for his or her drug abuse problem.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who struggle with substance abuse may have unique obstacles they have to overcome while in treatment, which rehab specialists in the rehab they choose to take part in must be keen of in order that a full recovery may be possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is prudent to decide on a program that is familiar with helping seniors and older adults tackle the unique life and drug use problems that these clients face which may include a wider spectrum of solutions including health care and so on.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab due to a court ruling in order to meet part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehabilitation often receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when cooperating with drug and alcohol rehabilitation requirements enforced on them as part of sentencing and also naturally when successfully completing an alcohol and drug treatment facility.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and drug abuse because of the challenges that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can sometimes be difficult among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL along with other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse treatment is required. Apart from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the help they need in drug rehab.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs possess the staff or resources to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more facilities that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Therapy, study data and stuff like that are now frequently available in Spanish in both long and short terms facilities which deliver inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is available too around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but people really have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehab programs will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehabilitation center that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in setting up the person's rehab strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should talk with 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 take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities and also partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations regarding how much time a stay in inpatient drug rehab is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you start rehab so that it's clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehab center of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option made available from a number of alcohol and drug treatment centers in order to help clients afford rehabilitation where this may not have been doable originally. For instance, one client's price for rehabilitation may be different and lower than somebody else whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay for the full cost of rehab. Registrars consider variables aside from income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs provide payment assistance to help clients who may not have sufficient funds to self pay for treatment or whose medical insurance won't provide coverage or full coverage for their stay. For example, Sometimes insurance only covers a short-term facility when in actuality a long-term center will likely be the more appropriate option. To find out what payment assistance might be offered, such as a sliding fee scale, consult the facility for details.
