Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are accessible to anyone that needs to be safely managed through detoxification services when intensely addicted to drugs and/or alcohol, or who wants a better spectrum of care such as someone who has a dual diagnosis and also needs mental health solutions during their rehabilitation process. You can find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services accessible.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab solutions with regards to intensity of care, since the individual can maintain their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehab program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even if this might seem perfect it may not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in rehabilitation require to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues are what are recognized in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must address both disorders during rehab in order to find resolution because one usually triggers the other. Fortunately, there are many drug and alcohol rehab programs that can specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues face so that they can not simply become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not consider it wise to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment or will only cover some 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 program they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehab facilities will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug and alcohol treatment service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment facilities. Individuals could have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab program that's within their network of providers and there can be other restrictions including just how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a good program they like and consult with a rehabilitation specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.
