With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance companies, there is no need to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services regarding level of care, for the reason that individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab facility while undergoing rehab services. While this may seem perfect it will not provide the required change of environment than many individuals in recovery require to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Adolescents

When adolescents get involved in any sort of drug abuse, it is crucial that they obtain high quality care to stop the situation in its tracks so that it doesn't get any worse and possibly jeopardize their future. Due to the fact adolescent drug abuse which continues often carries on into one's adult life, mothers and fathers must stay vigilant and get their adolescent treatment as soon as a problem is observed in a center which handles adolescent drug abuse.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues are what are recognized in the field of drug and alcohol rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must deal with both disorders during treatment to find resolution because one usually exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are lots of drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities who are able to specifically address the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders face to be able to not only become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to satisfy part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug rehabilitation requirements enforced with them in sentencing and also of course when successfully completing an alcohol and drug treatment facility.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a much more leverage because they can choose whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation centers will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehab facility that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only inside the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some form of drug treatment service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers. Individuals may have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility that's in their network of providers and there may be other restrictions for example how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they like and consult with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain drug abuse rehab services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities and also 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 concerning how long a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you start rehab so that it's clear how long and individual can stay in the treatment program of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option provided by a number of drug treatment programs in an effort to help clients afford rehabilitation where this may not have been doable initially. For instance, one client's price for rehabilitation could be different and another person whose financial situation is better which makes them better able to spend the money for full price of rehabilitation. Registrars consider additional factors aside from income including number of dependents to determine the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
