Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of level of care, since the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab program while receiving rehabilitation services. Although this may seem ideal it may not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many people in recovery have to have to experience a productive rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. In addition, rehab facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other type of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehab facility which will get better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug treatment centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in setting up the person's treatment strategy. Inpatient services 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 Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug rehabilitation service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities. Individuals may have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility that is inside their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like the length of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select a good center they prefer and meet with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular drug abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some limitations regarding the length of time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is allowed, and all of these questions can be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the treatment facility of choice.
