Drug Addiction Facts

  • There are currently over 120,000 methadone maintenance patients in the United States, 40,000 of which are in New York State and about half that many are in California.
  • In high doses or when used concurrently with other drugs or alcohol, methadone can produce some of the same effects of heroin and other opiates.
  • Findings from a recent study concluded that after three years, the positive effects of Ritalin on conditions such as ADHD typically fade, and by eight years there is no evidence that this type of medication used to treat the disorder produces any academic or behavioral benefits.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of intensity of care, because the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a treatment center while undergoing rehab services. Even though this may appear perfect it may not provide the required change of environment than lots of people in treatment require to experience a successful rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse due to problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem is often hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL as well as other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse treatment is needed. Besides ASL, such services may include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are obtaining the help they need in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will usually provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation facilities accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehab facility that will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug rehab facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with establishing the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for 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 rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might be eligible for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some type of drug and alcohol rehab service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug treatment programs. Individuals may have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment center which is inside their network of providers and there could be other restrictions for example how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a quality facility they prefer and consult with a treatment specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular substance abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some restrictions regarding how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehab is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the treatment facility of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility provided by many different alcohol and drug rehab programs to help help individuals pay for rehabilitation where this might not have been possible originally. By way of example, one client's fee for rehab could be different and less than another person whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay the full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional circumstances besides income including number of dependents to determine the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
