Drug Addiction Facts

  • Ecstasy affects many of the same areas of the brain that are targeted by other addictive drugs, and studies show that animals prefer the drug, much like they do cocaine, over other pleasurable stimuli, which is another hallmark of most addictive drugs.
  • Heroin is the most commonly cited substance in mortality cases where illicit drugs are present in Philadelphia, and in 2011 heroin/morphine was found in 32.4 percent of cases.
  • Prescription stimulant withdrawal can occur if the individual taking the drug, whether legitimately or illicitly becomes physically and/or psychologically dependent to it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab solutions regarding level of care, as the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehabilitation center while undergoing treatment services. Although this may seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of environment than a lot of people in rehabilitation require to have a successful rehab.

Medicaid

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

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug rehab programs offer payment assistance to help individuals who may possibly not have enough funds to self pay for treatment or whose health insurance won't supply coverage or full coverage for their stay. As an example, Sometimes insurance only covers a short-term program when in fact a long-term facility will likely be the more appropriate option. To determine what payment assistance might be offered, say for example a sliding fee scale, check with the center for details.
