Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in many different settings along with different rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the various needs of clients with any type of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance plans, there is no need to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual can preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a treatment facility while receiving rehabilitation services. While this may seem perfect it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many individuals in rehabilitation have to have to have a productive rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the choice or ordered to rehab as a term of their sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can select which treatment center they would like to attend. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options so that they can move ahead in their lives without getting penalized further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but people in fact have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehab facilities will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present any other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality treatment facility that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option available from many different alcohol and drug treatment facilities in order to help clients pay for treatment where this might not have been doable initially. As an example, one client's price for rehabilitation might be different and another person whose finances are better making them better able to spend the money for full price of treatment. Registrars take into consideration additional factors apart from income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
