Drug Addiction Facts

  • Like heroin, morphine, and other opioid drugs, fentanyl binds to opioid receptors which are highly concentrated in areas of the brain that control pain and emotions.
  • Between 2007 and 2012, the estimated number of Americans injecting heroin nearly doubled, from 373,000 to 669,000, and this estimate may be low.
  • There is evidence from studies of stimulant addicts and case reports that stimulant drugs can cause heart disease, including inflammation and scarring.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in several settings along with various rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the various demands of clients with any sort of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being included in many insurance plans, there is no need to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab solutions in terms of level of care, because the individual can maintain their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to stay in a rehab facility while receiving rehabilitation services. While this may seem perfect it might not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehabilitation have to have to have a productive rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary 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 cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals really have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, treatment programs will often offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation program that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which deliver 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 doctor, who must help out with establishing the person's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. If a person has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only inside the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some kind of drug and alcohol rehab service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals could possibly have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment center that is in their network of providers and there may be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a quality center they like and speak with a rehab specialist to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain drug abuse treatment solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities as well as partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some limitations about how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it's clear just how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation center of choice.
