Drug Addiction Facts

  • Marijuana can affect judgment and decision making, which can lead to risky sexual behavior resulting in exposure to sexually transmitted diseases like HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
  • A study conducted at Johns Hopkins University analyzed brain scans of people who had used Ecstasy, and this study found that the drug had damaged their brains. Those who used Ecstasy had more brain damage than less frequent users.
  • The use of sedatives used to treat anxiety, insomnia, and seizures and methadone can be a deadly combination, although physicians may prescribe such drugs in combination and therefore put patients at risk.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab solutions with regards to intensity of care, because the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation program while receiving rehabilitation services. Even if this may seem ideal it will not provide the required change of environment than many individuals in treatment require to experience a productive rehab.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehab programs possess the staff or resources to focus on the demands of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more centers that are able to do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Counselling, study info and stuff like that are actually frequently accessible in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which provide inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish treatment is also available nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehab centers will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present any other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality treatment program that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug and alcohol treatment facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in establishing the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered 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 alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some kind of drug rehab service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs. Individuals may have to participate in a drug rehabilitation program that is within their network of providers and there could be other restrictions for example the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a quality facility they prefer and speak with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular drug abuse rehab services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers along with partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations regarding how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is allowed, and all of these questions can be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it's clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation facility of choice.
