Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in several settings along with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the varying needs of clients with any kind of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being included in many insurance plans, there is no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a rehabilitation program while undergoing treatment services. Even though this may seem perfect it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than lots of people in rehab have to have to experience a productive rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. In addition, treatment facilities will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehab center which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug and alcohol treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in establishing the individual's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't an option. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some type of alcohol and drug rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug rehab center which is in their network of providers and there can be other limitations for example the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a good program they prefer and meet with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain substance abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some restrictions as to the length of time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is permitted, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin treatment so that it's clear how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility available from many different drug and alcohol treatment programs in order to help individuals afford rehab where this might not have been possible originally. For instance, one client's price for rehabilitation may be different and another person whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay for the full cost of treatment. Registrars take into consideration variables apart from income including amount of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
