Drug Addiction Facts

  • All stimulants, whether prescription or illicit such as methamphetamine, work by increasing dopamine levels in the brain; dopamine is a brain chemical which has to do with pleasure, movement, and attention. This is what produces a high when abused.
  • Not all inpatient drug/alcohol rehabilitations are alike. The type of care, treatment and counseling provided in the various rehab programs will have much to do with lasting sobriety.
  • Prescription opioid pain medications such as Oxycontin and Vicodin can have effects similar to heroin, and statistics and studies indicate that abuse of these drugs may open the door to heroin abuse.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehab facilities possess the staff or resources to cater to the requirements of Spanish speaking clients, but thankfully there are more and more programs that will do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than any other time. Counselling, study data and the like are actually very often available in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which provide inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish treatment is available too nationwide.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehabilitation program which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug and alcohol rehab centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in setting up the person's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may qualify for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance.
