Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of intensity of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation facility while undergoing rehab services. While this may appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in treatment need to have a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug use issues are what are identified in the field of alcohol and drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must address both disorders whilst in rehab to find resolution due to the fact one usually triggers the other. Fortunately, there are many drug rehab programs who can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face to enable them to not merely become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehab program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab program.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some form of alcohol and drug rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals may have to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment program which is in their network of providers and there may be other limitations including the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select an excellent program they prefer and speak with a rehab specialist to find out if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain substance abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some restrictions concerning how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered before beginning rehab so that it's clear the length of time and individual can stay in the rehab facility of choice.
