Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions regarding level of care, since the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to stay in a rehabilitation center while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even if this might appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than lots of people in recovery have to have to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehab centers have the staff or wherewithal to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more programs that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Counselling, study data and so on are now frequently obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which provide inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish rehab is available too nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but people actually have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many people face. In addition, rehabilitation facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some treatment centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present another type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehabilitation program which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at alcohol and drug treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in setting up the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug treatment if other kinds 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 qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only in the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some type of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehab facilities. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug treatment center that's within their network of providers and there could be other restrictions such as the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a good center they prefer and speak with a rehab specialist to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse rehab services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers as well as partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some limitations about how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered prior to starting treatment so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation program of choice.
