Drug Addiction Facts

  • At an inpatient drug rehab, each patient goes through intensive individual addiction treatment with a counselor to discuss the issues that led to drug/alcohol addiction and learn to identify and avoid substance abuse triggers.
  • Inpatient treatment programs often require the patient to live at the center fulltime for a fixed period of time after the withdrawal phase is complete, typically 1, 2 or 3 months.
  • Nearly 25% of individuals who use heroin become dependent on it.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in many different settings with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the various demands of clients with any type of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being included in many insurance plans, you don't have to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services regarding intensity of care, since the individual can keep their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehabilitation center while undergoing treatment services. Although this may appear perfect it may not provide the much needed change of environment than many people in recovery require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals really have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. In addition, rehab programs will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug treatment service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals may have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab facility that is within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions including just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent facility they prefer and consult with a treatment counselor to determine if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain substance abuse treatment solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers along with partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There can be some restrictions as to how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug treatment is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehab program of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility offered by many different drug and alcohol rehab facilities to help help individuals pay for rehabilitation where this may not have been possible initially. For instance, one client's price for treatment might be different and somebody else whose finances are better making them more prepared to pay for the full price of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional factors aside from income including number of dependents to determine the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
