Drug Addiction Facts

  • Snorting or oral ingesting meth produces euphoria but not an intense rush such as that which is experienced through smoking or injecting the drug.
  • Prescription opioid pain medications such as Oxycontin and Vicodin can have effects similar to heroin, and statistics and studies indicate that abuse of these drugs may open the door to heroin abuse.
  • Inpatient admission rates to substance abuse treatment facilities for children of alcoholics are triple that of other children.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services in terms of level of care, as the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this might seem ideal it will not provide the required change of surroundings than many people in recovery have to have to have a successful rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the challenges that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL as well as other assistance services readily available for them when drug abuse treatment is needed. Aside from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the help they require in drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs possess the staff or wherewithal to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clientele, but thankfully there are more and more programs that will do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Counselling, study info and the like are actually very often accessible in Spanish in both long and short terms centers which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish treatment is available too nationwide.

Other Languages

In every single city in America there is someone fighting substance abuse that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who may require rehabilitation in whichever language it is that they are fluent in to ensure their needs can be catered to properly during rehab. Thankfully, there are numerous drug treatment centers who have counselors within their facility who speak other languages to make drug and alcohol treatment the best experience possible for anyone. Simply discover a high quality alcohol and drug rehab center and find out if it is possible to receive rehab in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but people really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may choose to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation center which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at drug and alcohol rehab facilities which provide 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 individual's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug and alcohol treatment service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals might have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program which is in their network of providers and there might be other limitations like how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent facility they prefer and consult with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility available from a number of alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in order to help clients pay for treatment where this might not have been doable originally. As an example, one client's price for rehabilitation could be different and another person whose financial situation is better which makes them better able to spend the money for full cost of treatment. Registrars take into account additional factors aside from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.
