Drug Addiction Facts

  • A recent study regarding the placebo effect in children whose parents and teachers were told they had been put on the ADHD drug Adderall, which in fact was a placebo pill, found that many cases diagnosed as ADHD may only be in the mind, for both the children diagnosed with the disorder and their parents and teachers.
  • The specific cardiovascular problems which may be caused by prescription stimulants have been highlighted in the FDA's "black box" warnings which include the risk of heart defects, heart attacks, stroke, high blood pressure, increased heart rate, and sudden death in people with a prior history of heart related problems.
  • Prolonged exposure to alcohol can erode the stomach lining and cause chronic blood seepage into the stomach.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anybody that should be safely managed through detox services when intensely dependent to drugs and/or alcohol, or who wants a better spectrum of care such as someone who has a dual diagnosis so also needs mental health solutions as part of their treatment procedure. There are both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services available.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of level of care, since the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab program while receiving treatment services. Even if this might seem perfect it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than lots of people in rehabilitation need to have a successful rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse due to challenges that their impairment impose on them. While detection of this problem can be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse treatment is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services may include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are obtaining the help they require in drug treatment.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can choose whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. In addition, rehabilitation facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehab facility which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug rehab centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in establishing the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other type 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 kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may be eligible for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some form of drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals may have to participate in a drug rehab center which is within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like just how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a quality facility they like and meet with a treatment counselor to determine if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers as well as 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 can be some limitations regarding the length of time 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's clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation program of choice.
