  • About one-half to two-thirds of boating accidents are alcohol-related.
  • Cocaine abuse has been linked to heart problems including artery blockages and heart attacks.
  • Methadone is also used to detoxify heroin addicts, not just as a "maintenance option", although studies show that most heroin addicts who detox using Methadone or any other method will eventually return to heroin use.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a number of settings and with different treatment lengths and plans to suit the varying demands of clients with any type of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being covered by many insurance plans, you don't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab solutions in terms of level of care, for the reason that individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of having to be in a rehab center while receiving rehab services. Although this may seem ideal it may not provide the required change of environment than many individuals in rehabilitation have to have to experience a successful rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug abuse as a result of challenges their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can be hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL and other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse treatment is needed. Aside from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the help they require in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. In addition, rehab centers will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehabilitation center that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might 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. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only within the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug treatment service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals could have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment center that is within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like just how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good center they prefer and speak with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility made available from numerous drug and alcohol treatment facilities to help help individuals afford treatment where this might not have been doable initially. As an example, one client's fee for treatment might be different and another person whose finances are better making them more prepared to pay for the full expense of rehab. Registrars take into account additional circumstances besides income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
