Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in many different settings along with different rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the varying needs of clients with any type of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential programs now being included in many insurance plans, there is no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to level of care, since the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehab facility while receiving treatment services. Although this might appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many people in rehabilitation require to have a successful rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals face. In addition, rehab facilities will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehab facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another type of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation program that will get better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab 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 approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug rehab service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab programs. Individuals might have to participate in a drug rehabilitation facility that's inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations for example how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select a quality facility they like and meet with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular substance abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers as well as partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There can be some restrictions concerning just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it is clear just how long and individual can remain in the treatment center of choice.
