Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of level of care, for the reason that individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehab program while receiving rehabilitation services. Although this may appear perfect it will not provide the required change of environment than lots of people in recovery require to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug use problems are what are known in the field of drug and alcohol rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must tackle both disorders whilst in treatment in order to find resolution due to the fact one usually triggers the other. Luckily, there are several alcohol and drug treatment centers who are able to specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues face in order to not simply become abstinent but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never want to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people face. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will usually provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment facilities will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present another type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehab center that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehab program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehab programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in establishing the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered 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 rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only in the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some type of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs. Individuals could have to take part in a drug treatment facility that's within their network of providers and there could be other restrictions including how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a quality program they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities and also partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations about the length of time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehab so that it's clear the length of time and individual can stay in the rehab facility of preference.
