Drug Addiction Facts

  • When abused, prescription stimulants can increase brain dopamine in a manner that is similar to other drugs of abuse such as methamphetamine, which in turn raises the risk of addiction.
  • Opiate narcotic abuse, such as abuse of Codeine products, is second only to marijuana in terms of past-year use in the United States.
  • Alcohol destroys brain cells and unlike many other types of cells in the body, brain cells do not regenerate.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a variety of settings and with different treatment lengths and plans to suit the varying needs of clients with any sort of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential programs now being paid by many insurance companies, there is no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Detoxification

Detoxification from alcohol and drugs is a process which can be made much more manageable and safely overseen when in a professional detoxification or drug and alcohol rehab center. Often detoxification isn't risk-free, and even with the very best of intentions individuals who undergo detoxification on their own so that they can get sober may very well be putting their health or perhaps their lives in danger. It is usually far better to look for detoxification solutions in a professional center to prevent such risks and also to have a smooth transition from detoxification to treatment in a quality alcohol and drug rehab program.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to level of care, since the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a rehabilitation center while undergoing treatment services. Even though this might seem ideal it may not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in recovery have to have to have a successful rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurers that so many men and women face. In addition, treatment centers will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other type of private health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality treatment facility which will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at alcohol and drug treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in establishing the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some type of drug rehab service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program that's inside their network of providers and there could be other limitations for example the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a quality facility they like and consult with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain substance abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers along with partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some restrictions as to how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions can be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it's clear the length of time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation center of choice.
