Drug Addiction Facts

  • Inpatient drug/alcohol treatment does not include detox as that usually occurs in a hospital environment, but follows it.
  • It is recommended that anyone who is struggling with addiction to codeine take part in a drug rehab program of at least a 90 day duration which addresses opiate addiction to ensure that they remain off of the drug for good.
  • Methadone accounts for only 2 percent of painkiller prescriptions in the United State, yet it is responsible for more than 30 percent of prescription painkiller overdose deaths.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to intensity of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to be in a treatment program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this might seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in recovery need to have a successful rehab.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol treatment facilities have the staff or wherewithal to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more programs that can do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Therapy, study data and the like are now very often available in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is available too around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but people actually have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people face. In addition, treatment centers will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present any other kind of private health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may wish to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehab facility which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug rehab facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in establishing the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option offered by a number of drug and alcohol treatment programs in order to help individuals pay for rehabilitation where this may not have been possible initially. For example, one client's fee for treatment may be different and lower than another person whose finances are better which makes them better able to pay the full expense of treatment. Registrars consider variables apart from income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
