Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a number of settings along with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to accommodate the varying demands of clients with any sort of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance plans, you shouldn't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to level of care, as the individual can preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehab facility while receiving rehabilitation services. Even though this might appear perfect it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many individuals in rehabilitation have to have to experience a successful rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the possibility or ordered to treatment as a term of their sentencing. Quite often, the offender can decide which rehab program they wish to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from reduced sentencing options to be able to move ahead in their lives without having to be penalized any further.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to meet a part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when cooperating with drug and alcohol rehab requirements enforced with them as part of sentencing especially of course when successfully completing a drug and alcohol rehab facility.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage because they can choose whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment programs will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some type of drug and alcohol treatment service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs. Individuals might have to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment program which is inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations such as how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select a quality facility they prefer and meet with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option made available from many different drug treatment facilities in order to help clients pay for rehab where this might not have been possible initially. By way of example, one client's fee for rehab might be different and less than somebody else whose finances are better making them more prepared to spend the money for full price of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration variables in addition to income including number of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.
