Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services in terms of level of care, as the individual can maintain their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehab center while receiving treatment services. Although this may seem perfect it will not provide the required change of environment than lots of people in rehab have to have to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug use issues are what are known in the field of alcohol and drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must handle both disorders during rehabilitation to find resolution because one typically triggers the other. Luckily, there are lots of drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities who can specifically hone in on the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders face in order to not simply become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not consider it wise to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people really have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. In addition, treatment centers will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug treatment centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in setting up the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug and alcohol treatment service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment facilities. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab facility that's in their network of providers and there may be other limitations including the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select an excellent center they like and consult with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some restrictions regarding just how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it is clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehab program of choice.
