Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings and with various treatment lengths and plans to suit the various needs of clients with any sort of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance companies, there's no need to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab solutions in terms of level of care, for the reason that individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to stay in a treatment program while receiving rehab services. Even if this might seem perfect it might not provide the required change of environment than many people in recovery require to have a successful rehabilitation.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the option or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can pick which rehab center they wish to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of reduced sentencing options to enable them to move ahead in their lives without having to be penalized any more.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse as a result of challenges their impairment impose on them. While detection of this problem can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and also other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse treatment is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services may include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are obtaining the support they require in drug treatment.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of treatment or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals really have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehab facilities will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehab facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present another form of private medical insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality treatment center which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If a person does not have any 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 will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug treatment centers. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program that's in their network of providers and there may be other limitations including just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent center they prefer and consult with a rehabilitation counselor to find out if their insurance covers it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility made available from many different drug treatment programs in an effort to help clients pay for rehab where this may not have been possible initially. For instance, one client's fee for treatment could be different and lower than another individual whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay for the full expense of rehab. Registrars consider other factors aside from income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.
