Drug Addiction Facts

  • Inpatient Marijuana rehabilitation is for persons who need physical and emotional support 24 hours a day, seven days a week because outpatient rehabilitation will not meet their needs.
  • Just quitting codeine cold turkey once addicted is not considered treatment at all, and most addicts will often return to regular abuse of prescription codeine in short order.
  • Intravenous heroin users will typically begin to experience the rush from the drug within 7 to 8 seconds after injection.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anybody that should be safely managed through detox services when seriously dependent to drugs and alcohol, or who needs a broader spectrum of care such as somebody who is dealing with a dual diagnosis and also needs mental health services during their rehabilitation procedure. You can find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services offered.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of intensity of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation center while receiving rehab services. While this might appear ideal it may not provide the required change of environment than a lot of people in rehabilitation have to have to experience a productive rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed 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 cases, it may seem like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people face. Likewise, rehabilitation centers will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehab facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other type of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals might want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug rehab centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally 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 form of alcohol and drug rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals may have to participate in a drug rehab center which is inside their network of providers and there can be other restrictions like the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a quality program they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation specialist to find out if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility offered by numerous drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in order to help individuals afford rehabilitation where this may not have been doable initially. By way of example, one client's price for rehabilitation may be different and less than another person whose finances are better which makes them more prepared to pay the full cost of rehab. Registrars take into consideration variables in addition to income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many alcohol and drug rehab programs offer payment assistance to help clients who may not have adequate resources to self pay for rehabilitation or whose health insurance won't provide coverage or total coverage for their stay. As an example, Sometimes insurance only covers a short-term program when in actuality a long-term center will likely be the more suitable option. To find out what payment assistance can be offered, for instance a sliding fee scale, consult the program for particulars.
