Drug Addiction Facts

  • Prescription stimulant withdrawal can occur if the individual taking the drug, whether legitimately or illicitly becomes physically and/or psychologically dependent to it.
  • Crack cocaine can be purchased in small amounts that are enough for two smoke sessions for an average of $5 to $15, and may be as much as 90 percent pure which is up to six times stronger than powder cocaine that is normally purchased on the street.
  • Small amounts of methadone can be passed into the mother's breast milk, which is why mothers that are on methadone maintenance programs are often encouraged to breastfeed in order to help ease the baby's withdrawal from methadone.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in several settings and with different rehab lengths and plans to suit the varying needs of clients with any sort of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential programs now being paid by many insurance plans, you don't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services regarding level of care, as the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even if this may appear perfect it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many individuals in treatment require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage simply because they can choose whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many individuals face. In addition, treatment facilities will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with establishing the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some kind of alcohol and drug treatment service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center that's inside their network of providers and there can be other restrictions including the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent center they like and meet with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities as well as partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some limitations about how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehab is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the treatment facility of preference.
