Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab services regarding intensity of care, as the individual can maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to stay in a rehabilitation center while receiving rehabilitation services. Even if this might seem perfect it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than many people in rehab require to experience a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems are what are known in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must tackle both disorders when it's in treatment in order to find resolution due to the fact one usually triggers the other. Luckily, there are many drug rehabilitation facilities that can specifically hone in on the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders face to be able to not only become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but people actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, treatment programs will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug and alcohol rehab service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals could have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment center that's within their network of providers and there may be other limitations like the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a quality center they prefer and speak with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular substance abuse rehab services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some restrictions regarding how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is allowed, and all of these questions can be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it is clear how long and individual can stay in the rehab center of preference.
