Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions with regards to level of care, since the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehabilitation center while undergoing rehab services. Although this might appear perfect it may not provide the required change of surroundings than many people in rehab have to have to have a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues are what are identified in the field of drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must deal with both disorders whilst in rehabilitation in order to find resolution because one often exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are many drug and alcohol rehab facilities that can specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face to be able to not merely become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

While detection of the problem is often hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL along with other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse rehab is required. Other than ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the support they need in drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people actually have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people face. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will often provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present another type of private health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality rehab program that will get better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment program.

Medicare

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

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug treatment service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program that's in their network of providers and there might be other limitations including the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent program they like and meet with a treatment counselor to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.
