Drug Addiction Facts

  • Individuals who become addicted to codeine often need further treatment to address underlying issues which may have caused their addiction problems.
  • The FDA recently announced that it will require companies who sell the fentanyl pain patch to issue a new warning label in an effort to prevent accidental overdoses from the powerful painkiller drug, following the deaths of two children from accidental fentanyl overdoses.
  • The disadvantage of an inpatient rehab program is, obviously that clients have to live at the center rather than at home. Although this can be helpful in terms of getting support, patients usually need to take a leave of absence from their jobs and will only see their families on designated visiting days while they are in rehab.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings and with different rehab lengths and plans to suit the varying demands of clients with any type of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance companies, you shouldn't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services regarding intensity of care, since the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehabilitation services. While this may appear perfect it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many individuals in treatment have to have to have a productive rehabilitation.

Adolescents

When adolescents become involved in any kind of substance abuse, it is crucial that they obtain top quality care to stop the problem in its tracks so that it doesn't worsen and possibly jeopardize their future. Due to the fact adolescent drug abuse which continues often carries on into adulthood, parents must stay astute and get their adolescent treatment the moment an issue is noticed in a center which addresses adolescent drug use. Several facilities which treat adolescents supply both inpatient and residential rehabilitation, which has been proven to be the most effective environments for rehabilitation clients of this age.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems are what are recognized in the field of drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must deal with both disorders during treatment to find resolution simply because one typically triggers the other. Luckily, there are many drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs that can specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face to enable them to not simply become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not feel the need to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the possibility or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can decide which rehab center they wish to go to. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from reduced sentencing options in order to progress in their lives without having to be penalized any further.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation as part of a court order to satisfy a part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation frequently receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when cooperating with alcohol and drug rehabilitation requirements enforced on them in sentencing and particularly naturally when successfully completing an alcohol and drug rehab facility.

Spanish

Not all drug treatment programs have the staff or resources to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clientele, but thankfully there are more and more programs that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Counselling, study information and so on are now very often obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is available too around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women encounter. In addition, treatment centers will often offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs will take 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 choose to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality treatment program that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug treatment facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug rehab facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in setting up the individual's rehab plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for 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 and alcohol rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers. Individuals could have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab facility that is within their network of providers and there can be other restrictions for example the length of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent program they prefer and consult with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain substance abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some restrictions as to how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it is clear just how long and individual can stay in the rehabilitation center of choice.
