With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance plans, there's no need to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of intensity of care, as the individual can preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to stay in a rehabilitation center while undergoing treatment services. While this may appear perfect it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in recovery have to have to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Pregnant and postpartum women not only need assistance from a quality rehabilitation for their own health and wellbeing but in addition the wellbeing of the unborn baby or the child they've delivered who needs to be properly looked after as they become rehabilitated and in turn capable of being a better mother. Rehabilitation possibilities exist which give them in addition to their child the appropriate wellness services whilst ensuring they acquire the treatment they might need to become sober and be able to stay that way to be the very best mother they can be.

DUI/DWI Offenders

Often times, the offender can decide which rehabilitation program they would like to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of reduced sentencing options to enable them to move ahead in their lives without having to be penalized any further.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to challenges their impairment impose on them. While detection of the issue is often hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and also other assistance services available for them when substance abuse rehab is needed. Aside from ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the help they need in drug and alcohol rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehab center which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only within the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab programs. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug rehabilitation facility which is within their network of providers and there may be other limitations like the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a good facility they like and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain substance abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some restrictions as to how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it is clear just how long and individual can stay in the rehab facility of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility made available from numerous alcohol and drug treatment facilities to help help individuals afford rehab where this might not have been doable initially. For example, one client's fee for treatment might be different and less than another person whose finances are better making them better able to pay the full cost of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration additional factors aside from income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
