100% Confidential.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to remain in a treatment program while receiving rehabilitation services. While this might seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in rehab require to have a productive rehabilitation.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into treatment due to a court order to fulfill part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehab often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug rehabilitation specifications enforced with them as part of sentencing specifically of course when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug treatment center.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug abuse due to the problems their impairment impose on them. While detection of this issue can sometimes be difficult among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services available for them when substance abuse rehab is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are receiving the support they require in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people encounter. Likewise, treatment programs will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may choose to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehab program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug rehab facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug and alcohol treatment service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab programs. Individuals could have to take part in a drug rehabilitation center which is in their network of providers and there may be other limitations such as just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a good center they prefer and consult with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of particular drug abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some limitations about just how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered before you begin rehab so that it is clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehab center of choice.
