Drug Addiction Facts

  • Fentanyl is an extremely dangerous substitute for heroin because it is much more potent than heroin, which often results in accidental overdoses and death as a result of respiratory depression.
  • If an individual has been taking fentanyl for even a short period of time, they will begin to experience intense withdrawal symptoms once they stop taking the drug.
  • Children treated with stimulant drugs such as Ritalin to control (ADHD) take up cigarette smoking earlier, smoke more heavily and are more likely to abuse cocaine and other stimulants as adults.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to level of care, because the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to stay in a treatment center while undergoing treatment services. Although this may appear perfect it might not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in rehab have to have to experience a productive rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and substance abuse due to the challenges their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL along with other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse rehabilitation is required. Apart from ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are obtaining the support they need in drug rehab.

Other Languages

In every single city in the U.S. there's someone fighting substance abuse that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who may need rehab in whatever language it is they are fluent in to ensure that their needs can be catered to properly while in treatment. Thankfully, there are numerous alcohol and drug treatment programs who have counselors on staff who speak other languages to make alcohol and drug rehab the most effective experience possible for anyone. Simply find a quality drug and alcohol treatment center and inquire if it is feasible to receive treatment in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people encounter. In addition, treatment centers will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present some other kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to pay for a more quality treatment center that will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug treatment centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in setting up the person's rehab strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug treatment programs. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment facility that is inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations for example the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent facility they like and meet with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some limitations as to how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you start treatment so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the treatment center of preference.
