Drug Treatment Help Request

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in several settings along with different rehab lengths and plans to suit the varying needs of clients with any type of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential programs now being paid by many insurance plans, there's no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of intensity of care, because the individual can maintain their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehabilitation program while receiving treatment services. Even though this might appear perfect it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than lots of people in rehabilitation have to have to have a successful rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. In addition, rehab centers will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug and alcohol rehab programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the person's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some kind of alcohol and drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment facilities. Individuals could have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center which is in their network of providers and there can be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select an excellent center they like and meet with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance covers it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option available from a variety of alcohol and drug treatment programs in an effort to help clients pay for rehab where this may not have been possible initially. By way of example, one client's fee for treatment could be different and lower than someone else whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay for the full price of rehab. Registrars consider additional factors apart from income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
