Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions with regards to level of care, as the individual can preserve their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehabilitation center while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this might appear ideal it may not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many people in treatment need to have a productive rehabilitation.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who struggle with substance abuse could possibly have unique obstacles they must conquer when in rehabilitation, which rehab specialists within the rehab they choose to be a part of have to be keen of to ensure a full recovery is achievable. So for seniors and older adults, it is advisable to decide on a center which is used to helping seniors and older adults tackle the unique life and substance abuse issues that these clients face that might include a broader spectrum of services including health care and the like.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehab as part of a court ruling to satisfy part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehab frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when cooperating with drug and alcohol rehab requirements enforced on them as part of sentencing and particularly naturally when successfully completing a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the challenges their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue can be difficult among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL and also other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse rehabilitation is needed. Other than ASL, such services may include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are obtaining the support they need in drug and alcohol rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many people face. In addition, rehabilitation centers will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab facilities accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present some other type of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehab center that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug and alcohol treatment facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with setting up the person's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like 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 and alcohol rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only within the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some form of drug treatment service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals might have to participate in a drug rehabilitation facility that is in their network of providers and there may be other restrictions such as the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a quality program they like and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular drug abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some restrictions about the length of time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehab so that it's clear how long and individual can stay in the treatment center of preference.
