Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment solutions regarding intensity of care, for the reason that individual can keep their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of having to be in a treatment program while receiving treatment services. Even though this might appear perfect it might not provide the required change of surroundings than many people in rehabilitation have to have to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders are what are recognized in the field of drug and alcohol treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must address both disorders whilst in rehabilitation to find resolution because one usually exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are many alcohol and drug rehab facilities who can specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use 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 feel the need to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to satisfy a part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehabilitation often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug rehabilitation specifications enforced with them as part of sentencing and also of course when successfully completing a drug and alcohol rehab center.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, treatment facilities will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some treatment programs accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehab center that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at drug rehabilitation programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in setting up the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may be eligible for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only within the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

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

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option made available from a variety of alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities to help help clients afford treatment where this may not have been doable initially. By way of example, one client's price for rehabilitation may be different and someone else whose finances are better which makes them better able to pay the full cost of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional factors in addition to income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
