Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions regarding level of care, for the reason that individual can preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even if this may appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in recovery have to have to have a productive rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurers that so many people face. Likewise, rehab centers will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another form of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehab facility which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with establishing the person's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab centers. Individuals could have to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment program that is in their network of providers and there could be other limitations including the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a good program they like and consult with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance covers it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option made available from many different alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers to help help clients pay for treatment where this might not have been doable initially. As an example, one client's fee for treatment might be different and another person whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay the full cost of rehab. Registrars take into consideration additional circumstances apart from income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.
