Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to level of care, since the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to be in a treatment facility while undergoing rehab services. While this may seem ideal it may not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in rehab need to have a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use problems are what are known in the field of drug and alcohol rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must tackle both disorders during rehabilitation to find resolution because one often triggers the other. Luckily, there are several drug treatment programs who can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues face to enable them to not only become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Spanish

Not all drug rehabilitation programs have the staff or wherewithal to focus on the needs of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more programs that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Counselling, study data and so on are actually frequently accessible in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish treatment is available too around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage simply because they can choose whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. Likewise, treatment programs will usually provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehabilitation center that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug treatment program.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some kind of alcohol and drug rehab service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals may have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center that is in their network of providers and there could be other limitations like the length of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they like and speak with a rehabilitation counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.
