Drug Addiction Facts

  • Research indicates that methamphetamine worsens the progression of HIV/AIDS and its consequences.
  • A staggering 60 percent of people who use Ecstasy report withdrawal symptoms, including fatigue, loss of appetite, depressed feelings, and trouble concentrating.
  • Heroin overdoses and overdose deaths are increasing in many areas of the country, due to high heroin purity, heroin at street level which is laced with other opioids such as fentanyl, increasing numbers of heroin abusers initiating use at a younger age, and inexperienced users switching from prescription opioids to heroin.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the issue can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and other assistance services intended for them when drug abuse treatment is needed. Aside from ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the help they need in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab facilities will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present any other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may choose to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation program which will produce better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab program.
