ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug abuse due to challenges that their impairment impose on them.

Aside from ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the help they need in drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many men and women face. Likewise, treatment programs will often offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment facility which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in establishing the person's rehab strategy.

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 forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle 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 insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals could have to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment facility that is in their network of providers and there can be other limitations including the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a good program they prefer and speak with a treatment counselor to determine if their insurance will take care of it.

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