Drug Addiction Facts

  • Fentanyl is an extremely dangerous substitute for heroin because it is much more potent than heroin, which often results in accidental overdoses and death as a result of respiratory depression.
  • If an individual has been taking fentanyl for even a short period of time, they will begin to experience intense withdrawal symptoms once they stop taking the drug.
  • Children treated with stimulant drugs such as Ritalin to control (ADHD) take up cigarette smoking earlier, smoke more heavily and are more likely to abuse cocaine and other stimulants as adults.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anyone who has to be safely managed through detoxification services when seriously addicted to drugs and/or alcohol, or who wants a broader spectrum of care such as someone who has a dual diagnosis and also requires mental health solutions as part of their treatment process. You will find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services offered.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment solutions regarding level of care, as the individual can preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a rehab facility while receiving rehab services. Even though this might seem perfect it might not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in recovery require to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use problems are what are identified in the field of drug and alcohol rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must address both disorders while in rehabilitation to find resolution because one often triggers the other. Fortunately, there are several drug rehabilitation centers who are able to specifically hone in on the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face to enable them to not simply become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who battle with drug use may have distinctive obstacles they have to overcome whilst in rehabilitation, which treatment specialists within the program they elect to be a part of should be keen of in order that a full recovery is achievable. So for seniors and older adults, it is wise to decide on a rehab that is accustomed to helping seniors and older adults address the unique life and substance abuse issues that these clients face which can include a broader spectrum of services including medical treatment and so on.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue can be difficult among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL along with other assistance services available for them when drug abuse treatment is needed. Aside from ASL, such services can include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the support they require in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but people in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehab programs will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present another kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of facilities, 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 treatment facility that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehab facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with setting up the person's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some form of alcohol and drug treatment service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals could have to take part in a drug treatment facility that's within their network of providers and there can be other limitations including the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select a good facility they like and consult with a treatment counselor to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers in addition to partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some limitations concerning how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered before beginning treatment so that it is clear just how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation program of preference.
