Drug Addiction Facts

  • Methadone is a synthetic opiate prescription drug which is used as "maintenance" treatment for heroin and other opiate addiction, because it curbs cravings for opiates and other opioid prescription drugs and also prevents withdrawal from these drugs.
  • Some addicts intentionally make the choice to use a form of heroin or cocaine which has been laced with fentanyl, in a desperate search for an increasingly better high.
  • All forms of marijuana contain THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) and more than 400 other chemicals besides THC.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in several settings and with different rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the varying demands of clients with any sort of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance plans, there is no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services regarding intensity of care, as the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehab center while receiving rehabilitation services. While this may appear perfect it might not provide the required change of environment than many individuals in rehabilitation require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present any other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehab facility that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only inside the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some kind of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab programs. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug treatment center which is in their network of providers and there could be other limitations like just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a good center they like and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to determine if their insurance covers it.
