Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, as the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab center while undergoing treatment services. While this might seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of environment than many people in rehabilitation require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women encounter. In addition, rehabilitation programs will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present any other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at alcohol and drug treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in setting up the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some type of drug treatment service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehab centers. Individuals could possibly have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab program that is inside their network of providers and there might be other restrictions such as the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a quality facility they prefer and consult with a rehab specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse treatment solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some limitations regarding the length of time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions can be answered before you start rehab so that it is clear just how long and individual can stay in the rehab center of preference.
