Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions regarding intensity of care, as the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to be in a rehab program while undergoing rehab services. While this may appear ideal it might not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in rehab require to experience a productive rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many men and women face. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehab facility that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab center.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals might have to participate in a drug rehabilitation center which is inside their network of providers and there can be other restrictions for example the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a good center they like and consult with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.
