Drug Treatment Help Request

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in several settings with various treatment lengths and plans to suit the varying demands of clients with any kind of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential programs now being included in many insurance companies, there's no need to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab solutions in terms of level of care, since the individual can maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this might appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in recovery need to have a successful rehabilitation.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the choice or ordered to rehabilitation as a term of their sentencing. In many cases, the offender can select which treatment program they wish to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of reduced sentencing options in order to progress in their lives without getting penalized any further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage because they can select whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women encounter. In addition, treatment programs will usually provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehab center that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug rehab programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in establishing the person's rehab plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but typically only within the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some form of drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment facility that is within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions such as how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent facility they like and speak with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular drug abuse treatment solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers along with partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some limitations about the length of time a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it's clear just how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation program of choice.
