Hospital Inpatient

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

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues are what are known in the field of alcohol and drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must deal with both disorders during rehabilitation in order to find resolution simply because one typically exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are numerous drug rehab centers that can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face so that they can not simply 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.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who have a problem with substance abuse may have distinctive obstacles they have to overcome whilst in rehab, which treatment specialists within the program they choose to take part in must be keen of to ensure a complete recovery may be possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is prudent to select a center that's accustomed to helping seniors and older adults deal with the unique life and drug abuse problems that these clients face which might include a broader spectrum of solutions including health care and so on.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but people actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehab centers will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation facility which will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when 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 establishing the person's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some kind of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals could have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment facility that's in their network of providers and there may be other restrictions for example the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent program they prefer and meet with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular substance abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers along with partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some limitations as to how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it is clear how long and individual can stay in the rehab facility of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility provided by a number of drug rehab facilities in an effort to help clients pay for rehabilitation where this might not have been doable initially. For example, one client's price for rehab could be different and lower than somebody else whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay the full price of treatment. Registrars take into account variables besides income including number of dependents to determine the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
