Drug Addiction Facts

  • In 2006 the FDA warned the public that they had received many reports of death and life-threatening side effects in patients that have taken methadone as prescribed by their physicians for pain relief.
  • The Food and Drug Administration now requires the manufactures of prescription stimulants to warn users of the cardiovascular problems that could be associated with the use of these types of medications.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, for the reason that individual can keep their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehab center while receiving rehabilitation services. Even if this may seem perfect it may not provide the required change of environment than many individuals in rehab have to have 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 problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem is often difficult among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL as well as other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse rehab is required. Other than ASL, such services can include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the support they need in alcohol and drug treatment.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol treatment programs possess the staff or resources to focus on the requirements of Spanish speaking clientele, but fortunately there are more and more centers that can do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Therapy, study information and stuff like that are now very often available in Spanish in both short and long terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is also available nationwide.

Other Languages

In each and every city in the U.S. there is someone struggling with substance abuse that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who might require treatment in whatever language it is they are fluent in so that their needs may be catered to properly when in rehab. Thankfully, there are many drug treatment programs which have counselors within their facility who speak other languages to make alcohol and drug rehabilitation the most effective experience possible for any individual. Simply find a quality drug and alcohol treatment center and find out if it is possible to receive rehab in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a much more leverage because they can select whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, treatment centers will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality treatment facility which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at alcohol and drug treatment facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in establishing the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment 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 costs of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some kind of drug and alcohol rehab service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab facility that's inside their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent program they like and consult with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain substance abuse rehab services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers in addition to partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There can be some restrictions regarding just how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug treatment is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you begin treatment so that it's clear the length of time and individual can stay in the rehab facility of preference.
