Seniors/Older Adults

So for seniors and older adults, it is prudent to decide on a center that's used to helping seniors and older adults deal with the unique life and drug abuse problems that these clients face which can include a wider spectrum of services including medical treatment and the like.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the challenges that their impairment impose on them. While detection of this problem can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL and also other assistance services readily available for them when drug abuse rehab is needed. Other than ASL, such services can include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are obtaining the support they require in drug and alcohol rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. In addition, rehabilitation facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehabilitation facility which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehab facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in setting up the person's rehab 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 covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug rehab service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug treatment centers. Individuals could have to take part in a drug rehabilitation facility that's within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a quality program they like and speak with a rehabilitation counselor to determine if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers along with partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some restrictions as to how much time a stay in inpatient drug treatment is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start rehab so that it's clear how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation program of choice.
