Halfway House

A halfway house is a location that allows for an easy transition if somebody has become sober by themselves or has finished an alcohol and drug treatment program and needs help re-acclimating to a regular lifestyle.

If help is needed finding a halfway house, speak to a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility and consult with a treatment specialist that can point you in the right direction.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to level of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to be in a rehab facility while receiving rehab services. Although this might seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of environment than a lot of people in rehab have to have to have a successful rehab.

Adolescents

When adolescents become involved in any kind of drug use, it is crucial that they receive top quality care to halt the problem in its tracks so that it doesn't get any worse and perhaps jeopardize their future. Because adolescent drug use which persists often continues into adulthood, parents must remain vigilant and get their adolescent rehabilitation as soon as an issue is noticed in a facility which handles adolescent drug use. A lot of facilities which treat adolescents offer both inpatient and residential rehab, which has been proven to be the very best environments for treatment clients of this age.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders are what are known in the field of drug and alcohol treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must deal with both disorders during rehabilitation in order to find resolution because one usually triggers the other. Luckily, there are many alcohol and drug rehab centers who are able to specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face to enable them to not just become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Women

Women need to have quality rehabilitation in rehab but may also require special awareness of the distinctive issues they face because of gender. Women and men not only face different and distinctive problems in daily life because of gender, but additionally may abuse drugs and alcohol for very different reasons. alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities which appeal to women and the specific and unique needs that women encounter often helps significantly on a women's path to long term sobriety and a higher quality of life.

Men

Just as men and women face varying and unique challenges in everyday life that are specific to their gender, men and women could also face distinctive challenges in treatment that are gender specific, which explains why a center specifically designed with these unique needs and challenges in mind can be very helpful for someone seeking an effective rehabilitation option.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to meet part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug treatment frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with drug and alcohol rehabilitation requirements enforced on them as part of sentencing especially of course when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug treatment facility.

Spanish

Not all drug treatment facilities have the staff or resources to focus on the needs of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more programs that are able to do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Counselling, study data and the like are now very often accessible in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish treatment is available too around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, treatment centers will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehab facility that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in setting up the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through 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 treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug treatment service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment programs. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug rehabilitation center which is inside their network of providers and there could be other restrictions for example the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent center they prefer and speak with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There can be some limitations as to the length of time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered prior to starting treatment so that it's clear the length of time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation program of choice.
