Drug Addiction Facts

  • As of 2011, about 7% of 8th-graders were current marijuana users.
  • The risk for stroke associated with cocaine use is much higher than with other stroke risk factors, such as diabetes, high blood pressure or smoking due to the fact that cocaine use can result in the constriction of blood vessels, increased heart rate, body temperature and blood pressure, and decreased oxygen supply to the brain.
  • Inpatient Marijuana rehabilitation is one of the most successful methods of drug rehab. A patient will reside at the center for the duration of their treatment and be will be provided with the level of care needed in order to achieve and maintain sobriety.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are accessible to anybody that must be safely managed through detox services when seriously dependent to drugs and alcohol, or who needs a better spectrum of care such as somebody who has a dual diagnosis and also needs mental health solutions as part of their rehab process. You'll find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services offered.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues are what are known in the field of alcohol and drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must address both disorders while in treatment to find resolution due to the fact one often triggers the other. Luckily, there are lots of alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities who are able to specifically address the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders face to be able to not simply become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL along with other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse treatment is necessary. Other than ASL, such services may include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are obtaining the support they require in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

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

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present any other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehab program that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when 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 person's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through 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 a possibility. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment program that's within their network of providers and there may be other restrictions like the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they like and speak with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations regarding the length of time a stay in inpatient drug treatment is allowed, and all of these questions can be answered before you begin treatment so that it's clear how long and individual can remain in the treatment facility of choice.
