Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in many different settings along with different rehab lengths and plans to suit the varying needs of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being included in many insurance plans, there is no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to level of care, for the reason that individual can keep their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehab center while undergoing treatment services. Although this might seem ideal it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many individuals in rehab need to have a successful rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the challenges that their impairment impose on them. While detection of this problem is often hard among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL as well as other assistance services designed for them when substance abuse rehab is required. Aside from ASL, such services may include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the support they require in alcohol and drug treatment.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, rehabilitation centers will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs will take Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals might want to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehab program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug rehabilitation programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in setting up the person's rehab strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within 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 treatment, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some type of alcohol and drug rehab service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehab programs. Individuals could have to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment center that is inside their network of providers and there might be other restrictions for example just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a good center they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain drug abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities as well as 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 consultant. There could be some restrictions about how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehab is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered prior to starting rehab so that it's clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation program of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility provided by many different drug and alcohol rehab programs to help help individuals afford treatment where this might not have been possible originally. By way of example, one client's price for rehab could possibly be different and somebody else whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to spend the money for full expense of rehab. Registrars consider variables in addition to income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
