Drug Addiction Facts

  • The prescription stimulants Adderall is becoming a popular party-drug, and it isn't uncommon for someone who would use recreational party drugs such as Ecstasy to use a prescription stimulant such as Adderall to stay up and part all night or even for days in some cases.
  • Methadone stays in the system as long as 59 hours, but only provides pain relief for up to 8 hours. Patients may need more pain relief before the drug is cleared from the body, and therefore administer another dose too soon resulting in toxic levels of the drug in the system which can lead to life-threatening changes in breathing and heart function.
  • Ecstasy use adversely affects the efficiency in which the heart pumps blood and oxygen to the rest of the body.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to intensity of care, because the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to stay in a rehabilitation program while receiving treatment services. Even though this might seem perfect it may not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in rehabilitation require to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders are what are identified in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must tackle both disorders during rehab in order to find resolution due to the fact one often exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are several alcohol and drug treatment facilities who can specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face to be able to not just become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never want to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse because of the problems their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem can be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and other assistance services available for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is needed. Other than ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are obtaining the help they need in drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage simply because they can choose whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. In addition, rehab centers will usually provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab programs accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present some other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality treatment program that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with setting up the person's rehab plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab 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 rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only within the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some form of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug treatment programs. Individuals could have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment 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 a good program they prefer and consult with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance will take care of it.
