Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab services regarding level of care, as the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehab program while receiving rehab services. Even though this might appear ideal it might not provide the required change of environment than many people in recovery have to have to have a successful rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment programs will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may choose to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehab facility that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug treatment programs. Individuals might have to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment program which is in their network of providers and there may be other limitations for example the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a good facility they like and meet with a rehabilitation specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular substance abuse rehab services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some restrictions concerning the length of time a stay in inpatient drug rehab is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin rehab so that it is clear just how long and individual can remain in the rehab program of choice.
