Drug Addiction Facts

  • Inpatient substance treatment facilities offer a safe environment, where patients will not be exposed to potentially dangerous situations during their treatments as they would be on the outside.
  • As with other opiate narcotics, methadone creates a feeling of well-being and binds to the same receptors in the brain as heroin and other drugs.
  • Crystal meth is a more potent version of meth, and typically resembles small fragments of shiny white pebbles or rocks which can be smoked using glass pipes that are very similar to the pipes that are used to smoke crack cocaine.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab solutions regarding intensity of care, since the individual can preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to stay in a treatment center while undergoing rehab services. Although this may appear perfect it may not provide the required change of environment than many people in treatment require to have a productive rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse as a result of challenges their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem is often hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL and other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse rehabilitation is required. Aside from ASL, such services can include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired people are obtaining the help they require in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment 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 program they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present any other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality rehab program which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some kind of drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals may have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment center that is in their network of providers and there might be other limitations like the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select an excellent facility they prefer and meet 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 expense of particular drug abuse rehab services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations as to just how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered prior to starting treatment so that it is clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehab facility of preference.
