Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anyone who must be safely managed through detox services when intensely addicted to drugs and/or alcohol, or who wants a broader spectrum of care such as somebody who has a dual diagnosis and also needs mental health services during their rehab process. There are both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services available.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, as the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to be in a treatment program while receiving treatment services. Although this may appear perfect it might not provide the much needed change of surroundings than lots of people in rehabilitation have to have to experience a productive rehab.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who battle with drug use may have distinctive obstacles they must overcome when in rehabilitation, which rehab professionals within the facility they elect to take part in have to be keen of so that a full recovery is possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is advisable to pick a program that is familiar with helping seniors and older adults handle the unique life and drug use issues that these clients face which may include a wider spectrum of services including medical care and so on.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people face. Likewise, treatment centers will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab facilities will take Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present any other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality rehab center that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug rehab programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in establishing the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind 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 may be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug treatment centers. Individuals could have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility that's inside their network of providers and there might be other limitations like how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they prefer and meet with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the price of particular substance abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities as well as partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There can be some limitations about how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin treatment so that it's clear just how long and individual can stay in the treatment program of preference.
