Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in many different settings along with different rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the varying needs of clients with any type of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential programs now being included in many insurance plans, there is no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to level of care, since the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehab facility while receiving treatment services. Although this might appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many people in rehabilitation require to have a successful rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals face. In addition, rehab facilities will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehab facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another type of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation program that will get better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only inside the state which offers the insurance.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option available from a number of drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in an effort to help individuals afford rehabilitation where this may not have been possible initially. For instance, one client's fee for rehabilitation could be different and someone else whose financial situation is better which makes them more prepared to pay the full expense of treatment. Registrars take into account additional factors in addition to income including number of dependents to determine the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
