Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in several settings and with different rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the varying demands of clients with any kind of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being included in many insurance plans, there's no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, because the individual can keep their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of needing to be in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehab services. While this might seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many individuals in rehab require to have a productive rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the choice or ordered to rehabilitation as part of sentencing. Quite often, the offender can decide which treatment center they wish to enroll in. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of decreased sentencing options in order to progress in their lives without having to be penalized any further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but people actually have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment programs will usually provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug treatment facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in establishing the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind 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 may be used to cover the expense of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. If someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only within the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab programs. Individuals could have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program that is inside their network of providers and there can be other limitations including how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a quality center they prefer and speak with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option available from a variety of alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities to help help clients afford rehab where this may not have been doable initially. As an example, one client's price for treatment may be different and less than somebody else whose finances are better making them better able to spend the money for full cost of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account other factors aside from income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost using the sliding scale.
