Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in many different settings along with different rehabilitation lengths and plans to accommodate the various demands of clients with any type of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance companies, there is no need to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, because the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a treatment facility while undergoing rehab services. Although this may appear perfect it will not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in recovery have to have to have a successful rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the option or ordered to rehab as part of sentencing. Often times, the offender can decide which rehab facility they would like to enroll in. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options to enable them to move ahead in their lives without having to be penalized further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people face. In addition, rehabilitation facilities will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment centers accept Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present any other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehabilitation program that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab programs. Individuals could have to take part in a drug treatment center that is within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like the length of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent facility they like and meet with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain substance abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations concerning how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehab is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it's clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation center of preference.
