Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are accessible to anyone that must be safely managed through detoxification services when intensely dependent to drugs and alcohol, or who requires a broader spectrum of care such as somebody who is dealing with a dual diagnosis so also needs mental health solutions as part of their treatment procedure. You can find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services available.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab services with regards to level of care, for the reason that individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to be in a treatment center while undergoing treatment services. Although this might seem perfect it might not provide the required change of environment than many individuals in rehab have to have to have a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders are what are recognized in the field of drug and alcohol rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must tackle both disorders when it's in rehab in order to find resolution simply because one often triggers the other. Luckily, there are several drug rehab programs who are able to specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues face in order to not only become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab due to a court ruling to meet a part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehabilitation frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with drug treatment specifications enforced on them in sentencing and also of course when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug rehab program.

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 this issue can be difficult among the hearing impaired, there are ASL and other assistance services designed for them when substance abuse treatment is needed. Aside 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 rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people face. In addition, rehab programs will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehab facility that will get better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug and alcohol treatment centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like 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 rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab centers. Individuals might have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program that is in their network of providers and there might be other limitations such as just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent program they prefer and consult with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse treatment solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers 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 consultant. There might be some limitations regarding how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug treatment is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it is clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehab program of choice.
