Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a number of settings with different rehabilitation lengths and plans to accommodate the varying needs of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being covered by many insurance plans, you shouldn't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Residential Short-Term Treatment (30 Days Or Less)

Residential short-term treatment for 30 days or less is a possibility which allows people in recovery to have the very much needed change of environment required to have a shot at remaining abstinent. Residential treatment is the premiere option because individuals can feel comfortable and at home while receiving services. Residential short-term treatment for 30 days or less may not be lengthy enough for particular individuals with more extreme addiction and dependency issues, and this should at all times be looked into at the end of the 30 days to ascertain if more extensive treatment is needed.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug treatment programs have the staff or resources to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clients, but luckily there are more and more centers that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Counselling, study data and the like are actually very often accessible in Spanish in both long and short terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish treatment is also available nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but people actually have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. In addition, rehab centers will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present any other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation facility that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug rehab center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may qualify for state insurance, they should 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 take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some type of drug rehab service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility which is inside their network of providers and there can be other limitations like the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a quality facility they prefer and meet with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance will handle it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option made available from many different drug rehab facilities to help help clients pay for treatment where this might not have been possible originally. For instance, one client's fee for rehab could be different and less than someone else whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay the full price of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration additional factors aside from income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug treatment facilities provide payment assistance to help clients who may not have sufficient funds to self pay for treatment or whose health insurance won't provide coverage or full coverage for their stay. By way of example, Sometimes insurance only pays for a short-term program when in fact a long-term facility will be the more ideal selection. To find out what payment assistance may be offered, say for example a sliding fee scale, seek advice from the center for particulars.
