Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a number of settings and with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the various needs of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being included in many insurance companies, you shouldn't have to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services regarding intensity of care, because the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to be in a treatment program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even if this may seem ideal it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in rehab need to experience a successful rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the possibility or ordered to rehab as part of sentencing. Often times, the offender can decide which rehab center they would like to enroll in. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of reduced sentencing options to enable them to move ahead in their lives without getting penalized any more.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehab centers will usually provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present some other form of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment center that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only inside the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab programs. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment facility which is in their network of providers and there could be other restrictions such as just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select an excellent facility they prefer and speak with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.
