Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions regarding level of care, as the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to be in a rehabilitation center while receiving rehabilitation services. Although this may appear ideal it will not provide the required change of environment than lots of people in recovery have to have to have a productive rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse because of the challenges that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem can be difficult among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and other assistance services readily available for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is needed. Apart from ASL, such services can include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are obtaining the help they need in drug and alcohol rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a much more leverage because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, rehab centers will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present some other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehabilitation facility that will produce better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol treatment centers 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 doctor, who must help in establishing the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for 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 and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, 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 typically cover some form of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug treatment centers. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug rehab program which is in their network of providers and there may be other limitations for example how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent facility they prefer and speak with a rehab specialist to find out if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain drug abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers along with partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some restrictions regarding the length of time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you begin treatment so that it is clear how long and individual can remain in the rehab program of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option provided by a number of drug rehabilitation programs to help help clients pay for rehabilitation where this may not have been doable originally. For example, one client's fee for treatment could possibly be different and another person whose finances are better making them more prepared to pay the full price of treatment. Registrars take into account additional circumstances aside from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
