Outpatient

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders are what are recognized in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must tackle both disorders while in rehab to find resolution because one usually exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are numerous drug and alcohol treatment programs who are able to specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face in order to not merely become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

Besides ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the help they require in drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehab centers have the staff or wherewithal to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more centers that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Counselling, study info and the like are now very often obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is also available around the country.

Other Languages

In every city in America there's someone struggling with drug use that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who might need rehab in whichever language it is they are fluent in to ensure their needs can be met properly while in rehabilitation. Thankfully, there are lots of drug rehabilitation facilities that have counselors within their facility who speak other languages to make alcohol and drug rehabilitation the best experience possible for any individual.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many people face. In addition, rehabilitation programs will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers accept Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present any other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehab facility which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in setting up the person's rehab plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some type of drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug treatment centers. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center which is inside their network of providers and there could be other limitations such as the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a quality center they prefer and meet with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance will take care of it.
