Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions with regards to intensity of care, as the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to be in a rehab center while receiving treatment services. Even though this may seem ideal it will not provide the required change of surroundings than lots of people in recovery require to have a productive rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Spanish

Not all drug rehab facilities have the staff or wherewithal to focus on the needs of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more facilities that will do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than ever before.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only cover part of it.

Medicaid

Some rehab facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other form of private health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation facility which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.

Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Individuals might have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility that is within their network of providers and there may be other limitations like just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they prefer and meet with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance will cover it.

Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant.

Sliding Fee Scale

Registrars take into consideration other factors in addition to income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
