Drug Addiction Facts

  • The FDA recently announced that it will require companies who sell the fentanyl pain patch to issue a new warning label in an effort to prevent accidental overdoses from the powerful painkiller drug, following the deaths of two children from accidental fentanyl overdoses.
  • Heavy alcohol consumption among older adults can worsen certain preexisting health conditions including diabetes, high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, liver problems, osteoporosis, memory problems and mood disorders.
  • Animal studies indicate that animals will work more persistently at pressing a bar for cocaine than for any other drug, including opiates. In one example, one monkey test subject pressed the bar 12,800 times until it got a single dose of cocaine. If the animal survives in such studies, it will return to the task of obtaining more cocaine.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab services with regards to level of care, since the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to stay in a rehab program while undergoing treatment services. Although this may seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than lots of people in rehabilitation require to experience a successful rehab.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who battle with substance abuse may have distinctive obstacles they must overcome whilst in rehab, which rehab professionals within the center they opt to take part in must be keen of in order that a complete recovery is possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is prudent to select a rehab that's familiar with helping seniors and older adults deal with the distinctive life and drug use issues that these clients face which may include a wider spectrum of services including health care and so on.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people face. In addition, treatment programs will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation 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 which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the center 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 services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab 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 treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office in 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 rehabilitation, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehab service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals might have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility that is within their network of providers and there might be other limitations for example how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select an excellent program they prefer and consult with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse treatment services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers as well as partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some restrictions concerning just how long a stay in inpatient drug treatment is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before beginning treatment so that it's clear how long and individual can remain in the rehab center of preference.
