Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings along with different rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the various demands of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being covered by many insurance plans, you don't have to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab solutions regarding intensity of care, since the individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to be in a treatment center while receiving rehab services. Even if this may seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many people in treatment need to have a successful rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to rehab as a term of their sentencing. In many cases, the offender can select which treatment center they wish to attend. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of reduced sentencing options so that they can progress in their lives without having to be penalized any more.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of treatment or will only cover part of it. In these situations, 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 would like without the limitations from health insurers that so many people face. Likewise, treatment centers will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present any other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality treatment program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should check with 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 take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some type of drug rehab service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals could have to participate in a drug treatment center which is in their network of providers and there could be other limitations like the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a quality program they prefer and consult with a rehabilitation specialist to determine if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers as well as partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some restrictions about the length of time a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it is clear how long and individual can stay in the rehabilitation program of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility provided by many different drug and alcohol treatment programs to help help individuals afford treatment where this may not have been doable originally. As an example, one client's price for rehab may be different and less than someone else whose finances are better which makes them better able to pay the full expense of rehab. Registrars take into account variables apart from income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost using the sliding scale.
