Drug Addiction Facts

  • According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 24% of all patients seeking treatment in inpatient centers ultimately drop out of the program without completion.
  • Meth use may lead to irreparable brain damage, because the drug destroys natural dopamine production sites in the brain.
  • Overcoming meth addiction is often impossible without drug rehab, particularly because of severe physical and mental illnesses, including suicidal depression that results from meth use and meth withdrawal.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anybody that must be safely managed through detoxification services when heavily dependent to alcohol and drugs, or who wants a broader spectrum of care such as somebody who is dealing with a dual diagnosis so also requires mental health solutions during their treatment procedure. You can find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services accessible.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who have trouble with substance abuse might have distinctive challenges they have to conquer when in treatment, which rehabilitation specialists in the program they elect to take part in must be keen of to ensure that a full recovery is possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is prudent to decide on a center that is familiar with helping seniors and older adults handle the distinctive life and drug abuse problems that these clients face that might include a wider spectrum of solutions including medical care and so on.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehab as part of a court order to fulfill a part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation often receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug treatment requirements enforced with them in sentencing and particularly naturally when successfully completing a drug rehabilitation program.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehab programs have the staff or resources to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clientele, but fortunately there are more and more programs that can do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Counselling, study information and so on are now frequently accessible in Spanish in both short and long terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people face. In addition, rehab facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present some other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals may wish to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehab center which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug treatment centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in establishing the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other type 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 and alcohol treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally 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 generally cover some kind of drug and alcohol rehab service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals might have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment program which is within their network of providers and there can be other limitations such as just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select an excellent center they like and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to determine if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain drug abuse rehab services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some limitations concerning just how long a stay in inpatient drug treatment is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehab so that it is clear just how long and individual can stay in the rehab facility of choice.
