Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment solutions regarding intensity of care, for the reason that individual can preserve their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this might seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many individuals in recovery require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders are what are known in the field of drug and alcohol rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must tackle both disorders when it's in treatment to find resolution due to the fact one typically triggers the other. Fortunately, there are lots of alcohol and drug rehab centers who are able to specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues face to be able to not merely become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people face. Likewise, treatment centers will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the facility is 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 rehab strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehab facilities. Individuals may have to take part in a drug treatment facility that's in their network of providers and there might be other restrictions such as how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a quality facility they prefer and meet with a rehab specialist to determine if their insurance will handle it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option available from many different drug and alcohol rehab facilities in order to help clients afford rehabilitation where this may not have been possible initially. For example, one client's price for rehabilitation may be different and less than somebody else whose financial situation is better making them better able to spend the money for full price of rehab. Registrars take into consideration other factors besides income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
