Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services regarding intensity of care, since the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation program while receiving rehab services. While this might seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than lots of people in rehab need to experience a successful rehab.

Adolescents

When adolescents become involved in any type of substance abuse, it is crucial that they obtain quality care to stop the problem in its tracks so that it doesn't get any worse and possibly jeopardize their future. Due to the fact adolescent substance abuse which persists often continues into adulthood, parents must continue to be vigilant and get their adolescent treatment when an issue is noticed in a facility which handles adolescent drug abuse. Several programs which treat adolescents provide both inpatient and residential treatment, which has been proven to be the most beneficial environments for rehab clients of this age.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug abuse problems are what are identified in the field of alcohol and drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must address both disorders during rehabilitation to find resolution simply because one typically exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are numerous alcohol and drug treatment centers who are able to specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face to be able to not simply become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Women

Women have to have quality treatment in rehab but might also need particular awareness of the unique issues they face because of gender. Women and men not only face different and unique challenges in everyday life due to gender, but also may abuse drugs and alcohol for very different reasons. drug treatment programs which cater to women and the specific and unique needs that women encounter often helps significantly on the women's path to long term sobriety and a higher standard of living.

Men

Similar to how women and men face varying and different challenges in everyday life which are specific to their gender, women and men may also face distinctive challenges in treatment which are gender specific, which is the reason a rehab specifically designed with these special needs and challenges at heart can be extremely ideal for someone seeking a powerful rehab solution.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the option or ordered to rehabilitation as a term of their sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can decide which treatment program they would like to go to. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of reduced sentencing options to enable them to move forward in their lives without having to be penalized further.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into treatment as part of a court order to satisfy part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol treatment often receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug rehab requirements enforced on them in sentencing specifically of course when successfully completing a drug treatment center.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. Likewise, treatment programs will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present some other kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehab center that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in establishing the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered 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 treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab facility that's within their network of providers and there may be other restrictions for example how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent facility they like and speak with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.
