Luckily, there are numerous drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities that can specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face so that they can not simply become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehab often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when cooperating with alcohol and drug treatment specifications enforced on them as part of sentencing and also of course when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, treatment programs will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present some other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may choose to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at alcohol and drug rehab programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with establishing the person's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If a person has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only in the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

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