Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, because the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to stay in a treatment program while undergoing treatment services. Even if this may appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than a lot of people in recovery have to have to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders are what are known in the field of alcohol and drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must address both disorders while in treatment in order to find resolution because one often triggers the other. Luckily, there are many alcohol and drug rehab programs who can specifically hone in on the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face so that they can not merely become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never consider it wise to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehabilitation facility which will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.
