Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of intensity of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehab center while undergoing treatment services. While this may seem perfect it might not provide the required change of surroundings than many people in treatment need to have a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug abuse problems are what are recognized in the field of drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must handle both disorders whilst in rehab in order to find resolution simply because one typically exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are numerous drug and alcohol treatment facilities who can specifically hone in on the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues face so that they can not only become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage simply because they can choose whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women encounter. In addition, rehabilitation programs will often offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality treatment program which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehab program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug rehabilitation centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in setting up the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other type 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 costs of alcohol and drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only inside 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 type of drug treatment service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment programs. Individuals may have to take part in a drug rehabilitation facility that's inside their network of providers and there might be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent facility they prefer and speak with a treatment counselor to ascertain if their insurance covers it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option available from many different drug and alcohol treatment programs to help help clients pay for rehabilitation where this might not have been possible initially. By way of example, one client's price for rehab could possibly be different and someone else whose finances are better making them more prepared to pay for the full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration additional circumstances apart from income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
