Drug Addiction Facts

  • Inpatient treatment programs last a minimum of 28 days. Patients voluntarily enter a safe, secure center in which intensive drug/alcohol treatment programs are the foundation of the patient's daily activities.
  • In 2008, nearly one in four drug misuse or abuse emergency department visits (24 percent) in the U.S. involved cocaine.
  • Common additives used to cut cocaine are sugars, anesthetics and cornstarch but it is also sometimes cut with other illicit drugs, such as heroin, codeine, amphetamine, PCP, LSD, and hashish.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions regarding intensity of care, as the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to stay in a treatment center while undergoing rehab services. Even though this might appear ideal it might not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many individuals in recovery need to have a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders are what are known in the field of alcohol and drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must tackle both disorders whilst in rehab to find resolution due to the fact one usually triggers the other. Fortunately, there are numerous drug and alcohol treatment programs who are able to specifically address the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues face in order to not merely become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not consider it wise to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue can be difficult among the hearing impaired, there are ASL as well as other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse rehabilitation is needed. Aside from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the help they require in drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present any other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality rehab facility which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug and alcohol treatment centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with setting up the individual's rehab plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may 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 has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some form of drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug treatment centers. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program which is in their network of providers and there may be other limitations like how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a quality center they prefer and meet with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular substance abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers in addition to partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some limitations regarding how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it's clear just how long and individual can remain in the treatment program of choice.
