Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in many different settings and with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the various needs of clients with any sort of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being covered by many insurance companies, there is no need to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services regarding intensity of care, as the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a treatment center while receiving rehab services. Although this might appear perfect it might not provide the required change of surroundings than many individuals in rehab need to have a productive rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse as a result of problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem is often hard among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL as well as other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse treatment is needed. Other than ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are receiving the support they need in alcohol and drug treatment.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol treatment programs possess the staff or resources to focus on the needs of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more centers that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than previously. Therapy, study information and stuff like that are actually frequently available in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish treatment is also available nationwide.

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 some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. In addition, rehabilitation programs will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present any other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may choose to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality rehab facility that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at drug rehab programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in setting up the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some kind of drug and alcohol treatment service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab facility that is within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a good facility they like and meet with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance will cover it.
