  • Men are twice as likely to have been the intoxicated driver in fatal alcohol related motor-vehicle traffic crashes than women.
  • Despite popular belief, caffeine does not affect the metabolism of alcohol by the liver and thus does not reduce breath alcohol concentrations or reduce the risk of alcohol-attributable harms.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of intensity of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to be in a treatment facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this may appear ideal it may not provide the required change of environment than a lot of people in rehab require to experience a successful rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse due to challenges their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem can often be difficult among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL as well as other assistance services available for them when drug abuse rehab is required. Aside from ASL, such services can include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the help they require in drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but people really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehab programs accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present some other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehab facility that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug and alcohol rehab programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation 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 expense of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some type of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment programs. Individuals may have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program that's inside their network of providers and there can be other restrictions like how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent center they prefer and consult with a rehabilitation specialist to find out if their insurance will handle it.
