Drug Addiction Facts

  • The FDA recently announced that it will require companies who sell the fentanyl pain patch to issue a new warning label in an effort to prevent accidental overdoses from the powerful painkiller drug, following the deaths of two children from accidental fentanyl overdoses.
  • Fentanyl injections used either intravenously, intramuscularly, spinally or epidurally for potent analgesia and anesthesia.
  • A new study conducted by the Harvard-affiliated McLean Hospital and the National Institutes of Health indicates that the misdiagnosis of ADHD combined with prescription stimulants use in children puts these children at an elevated risk of developing depressive symptoms later in life as adults.

100% Confidential.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of level of care, for the reason that individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation program while receiving rehabilitation services. Although this may appear perfect it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in rehab require to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehab programs have the staff or resources to focus on the requirements of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more programs that are able to do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than previously. Counselling, study data and so on are now very often accessible in Spanish in both long and short terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available nationwide.

Other Languages

In every city in the U.S. there's someone being affected by drug use that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who may require rehabilitation in whichever language it is that they are fluent in to ensure that their needs can be catered to properly whilst in treatment. Fortunately, there are lots of drug and alcohol treatment programs that have counselors within their facility who speak other languages to make drug rehab the best experience possible for any individual. Simply look for a quality drug and alcohol rehab facility and inquire if it is possible to receive treatment in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, rehab programs will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other form of private health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehab center that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at alcohol and drug rehab facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in establishing the person's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only inside the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug treatment service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment center that's in their network of providers and there could be other limitations for example the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they prefer and consult with a rehabilitation counselor to determine if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular drug abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities as well as partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some limitations regarding how long a stay in inpatient drug treatment is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it's clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehab facility of choice.
