Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab services regarding level of care, for the reason that individual can keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to be in a treatment facility while undergoing rehab services. Even though this may seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in treatment need to have a successful rehabilitation.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at drug rehabilitation centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with setting up the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If a person has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only in the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some form of drug rehab service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug treatment program that's inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a quality center they like and speak with a rehabilitation counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular drug abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some limitations concerning just how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start treatment so that it's clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of choice.
