Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings along with different treatment lengths and plans to suit the various demands of clients with any sort of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being included in many insurance plans, there's no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of level of care, since the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation center while receiving rehab services. Although this may seem ideal it might not provide the required change of environment than many people in treatment require to have a productive rehabilitation.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the option or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. Often times, the offender can decide which rehab facility they wish to attend. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of decreased sentencing options in order to progress in their lives without having to be penalized any more.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people face. Likewise, rehab facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present any other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals might want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment program that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in setting up the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some form of alcohol and drug rehab service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab facility that is within their network of providers and there can be other restrictions for example how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a quality center they prefer and meet with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some limitations as to how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug treatment is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it is clear just how long and individual can stay in the rehab facility of preference.
