Outpatient

Fortunately, there are many drug treatment programs who are able to specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face so that they can not merely become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not feel the need to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue can be difficult among the hearing impaired, there are ASL as well as other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse rehab is needed. Aside from ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the help they require in drug treatment.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people face. In addition, rehab centers will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality treatment program that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the person's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some kind of drug rehab service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehab facilities. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab center that is inside their network of providers and there could be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a quality center they prefer and consult with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will handle it.
