Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a number of settings with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the various needs of clients with any sort of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being included in many insurance plans, there's no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services regarding intensity of care, since the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehab facility while undergoing treatment services. Even though this may seem ideal it may not provide the required change of surroundings than many individuals in recovery need to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues are what are identified in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must address both disorders while in treatment in order to find resolution because one typically exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are many drug treatment programs who are able to specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders face in order to not only become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the option or ordered to rehabilitation as part of sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can pick which rehab program they wish to enroll in. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of decreased sentencing options to be able to progress in their lives without having to be penalized any further.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse due to the problems their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and also other assistance services intended for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is needed. Apart from ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are receiving the help they need in drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals face. Likewise, treatment programs will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehab program which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at alcohol and drug treatment facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in setting up the person's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like 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 may be used to cover the expense of drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office within their area to figure out 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 provides the insurance coverage.
