Drug Addiction Facts

  • A recent study of cocaine abusers found elevated levels of serum C-reactive protein, a protein associated with inflammation, associated with endothelial abnormalities and coronary artery calcification. Both contribute to heart disease.
  • The 5 and 10 mg strength methadone tablets are the only formulations approved by FDA for use in pain management and other formulations, including dispersible tablets, have been prescribed for pain control.
  • Ecstasy affects many of the same areas of the brain that are targeted by other addictive drugs, and studies show that animals prefer the drug, much like they do cocaine, over other pleasurable stimuli, which is another hallmark of most addictive drugs.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions regarding level of care, as the individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab facility while undergoing rehab services. Even if this may appear ideal it may not provide the required change of environment than many people in rehab need to have a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues are what are known in the field of drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must address both disorders whilst in treatment in order to find resolution simply because one typically exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are several alcohol and drug rehab facilities who can specifically hone in on the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face so that they can not merely become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who battle with substance abuse could have unique challenges they have to conquer during rehab, which rehabilitation professionals within the rehab they choose to take part in should be keen of so that a full recovery may be possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is advisable to decide on a facility that's used to helping seniors and older adults tackle the unique life and substance abuse problems that these clients face which might include a wider spectrum of services including health care and so on.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and substance abuse because of the problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue can be hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL and other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse rehab is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are receiving the help they need in alcohol and drug treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab programs accept Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present some other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation program that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at alcohol and drug treatment centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in setting up the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some type of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals might have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program which is inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations for example just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select an excellent facility they prefer and consult with a rehab specialist to find out if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain drug abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some limitations as to the length of time a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered prior to starting treatment so that it's clear just how long and individual can stay in the treatment facility of preference.
