Drug Addiction Facts

  • The increase in serotonin caused by Ecstasy which produces a high also results in a low because the drug also interferes with its synthesis which leads to a considerable depletion of serotonin. As a result, it takes the human brain a significant amount of time to rebuild the store of serotonin needed to perform important physiological and psychological functions.
  • Studies indicate that the brains of Ecstasy users who experience serotonin depletion take a significant amount of time to restore the level of serotonin needed to perform important physiological and psychological functions.
  • Despite the popular belief otherwise, studies indicate that prescription stimulants do not enhance learning or thinking ability when abused.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anybody that has to be safely managed through detox services when heavily addicted to drugs, or who requires a better spectrum of care such as someone who has a dual diagnosis and also requires mental health services as part of their rehabilitation procedure. You'll find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services accessible.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse due to the problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can sometimes be difficult among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL along with other assistance services readily available for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is needed. Other than ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the help they require in drug treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present any other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality treatment center which will produce better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in establishing the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation 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 rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment programs. Individuals could have to participate in a drug treatment program which is within their network of providers and there may be other restrictions including the length of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they like and meet with a rehab specialist to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers in addition to partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some restrictions concerning how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug treatment is allowed, and all of these questions can be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it's clear how much time and individual can remain in the treatment facility of choice.
