Drug Addiction Facts

  • Codeine is a legal prescription drug but it is addictive, with prolonged use resulting in the same adverse effects as any other illicit drug.
  • If an individual wishes to get off of fentanyl and stop the cycle of addiction, a drug detox facility can help them through detox and withdrawal and a drug rehab program can treat the individual for addiction.
  • The medical examiner's office in Long Island, NY has been investigating several deaths initially assumed to be heroin overdoses but later found to have involved fentanyl.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in many different settings and with different rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the various needs of clients with any sort of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance plans, you shouldn't have to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services regarding intensity of care, because the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehabilitation center while receiving rehab services. Even if this might appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than lots of people in rehab have to have to experience a productive rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the option or ordered to rehab as part of sentencing. Quite often, the offender can select which rehabilitation facility they would like to go to. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from reduced sentencing options so that they can move ahead in their lives without getting penalized any more.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals really have a much more leverage because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. Likewise, treatment centers will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain treatment facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality treatment program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the center is 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 treatment strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation 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 treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some type of drug and alcohol treatment service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehab programs. Individuals may have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility which is within their network of providers and there can be other restrictions like how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a good center they like and consult with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain substance abuse rehab services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some restrictions regarding how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of preference.
