These clients must tackle both disorders whilst in rehab to find resolution simply because one typically triggers the other. Luckily, there are numerous drug rehab facilities that can specifically hone in on the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face to enable them to not just become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Persons With HIV/AIDS

Persons with HIV/AIDS who are in need of substance abuse rehab will very often need solutions beyond what a standard drug rehabilitation center will be able to provide. Simply because extensive healthcare services will often be a vital part of the physical recovery process for addicts with HIV/AIDS, who likely have experienced a progression and worsening of the disease due to their addiction, it is important that these clients get the medical care required together with any treatment solutions for his or her drug abuse problem.

Gays and Lesbians

It is important that gays and lesbians obtain quality rehab services in a treatment setting that's discreet and has treatment professionals available to them who understand the unique challenges that they experience in life. Because drug abuse for gays and lesbians is oftentimes triggered because of the challenges they face because of their sexual preference, a facility which will help them resolve these issues and give them the peace of mind they may have lacked prior to arriving in rehabilitation can be a crucial aspect of recovery for gay and lesbian clients.

Seniors/Older Adults

Women

Women require high quality rehab in rehab but can also need special attention to the unique challenges they face due to their gender. Males and females not only face different and unique problems in everyday life due to gender, but also may abuse alcohol and drugs for very different reasons. alcohol and drug treatment programs which appeal to women and the specific and unique needs that women face often helps significantly on a women's road to long term sobriety and a higher standard of living.

Men

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the option or ordered to rehabilitation as part of sentencing. Often times, the offender can decide which rehabilitation center they would like to attend. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options to be able to move forward in their lives without having to be penalized any more.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to fulfill a part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug treatment frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when cooperating with drug and alcohol rehabilitation specifications enforced with them in sentencing and also naturally when successfully completing a drug and alcohol rehab facility.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals may choose to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehab program which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug rehab centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in setting up the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare 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 forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only in the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab programs. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment facility that is within their network of providers and there may be other restrictions like the length of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they like and consult with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular drug abuse treatment services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers along with partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some restrictions as to how much time a stay in inpatient drug rehab is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehab so that it's clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehab facility of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option offered by numerous drug rehabilitation programs to help help clients afford rehab where this might not have been doable initially. For instance, one client's fee for rehabilitation might be different and lower than somebody else whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to spend the money for full cost of rehab. Registrars take into consideration variables aside from income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
