Drug Addiction Facts

  • Inpatient rehab treatment programs last a minimum of twenty-eight days. Patients voluntarily enter a safe, secure center in which intensive drug/alcohol treatment programs are the foundation of the patient's daily activities.
  • The length of stay and intensity of an inpatient treatment is defined by the severity and complexity of psychological, medical, and substance abuse issues of patients.
  • Opioid overdose deaths have increased four-fold in the past decade, and methadone now accounts for nearly a third of opioid of these deaths.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anybody who should be safely managed through detoxification services when heavily dependent to alcohol and drugs, or who needs a broader spectrum of care such as someone who has a dual diagnosis so also needs mental health solutions as part of their rehab process. You'll find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services offered.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to level of care, for the reason that individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this may seem ideal it may not provide the much needed change of environment than lots of people in recovery have to have to have a productive rehab.

Gays and Lesbians

It is crucial that gays and lesbians receive quality treatment services within a treatment setting which can be discreet and with treatment specialists available to them who understand the unique challenges which they have to deal with in life. Because drug use for gays and lesbians might be triggered because of the problems they face because of their sexual preference, a facility that can help them resolve these problems and give them the peace of mind that they've lacked prior to arriving in treatment can be a crucial part of recovery for gay and lesbian clients.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and substance abuse as a result of problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL as well as other assistance services available for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the help they require in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but people really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, rehab facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment facilities will take Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present another type of private health care insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality treatment program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehab programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in setting up the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only inside the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug rehab service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab centers. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program which is inside their network of providers and there could be other restrictions such as just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a quality center they like and meet with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse rehab services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some limitations concerning just how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it's clear how long and individual can stay in the treatment program of preference.
