ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and substance abuse because of the problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL along with other assistance services available for them when substance abuse rehab is necessary. Aside from ASL, such services can include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are receiving the support they need in alcohol and drug treatment.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, treatment programs will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of centers, and in cases like this individuals might want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehab center which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug treatment program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only within the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some type of drug and alcohol rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals could have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment program which is inside their network of providers and there can be other limitations such as just how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good program they like and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some limitations regarding the length of time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered prior to starting rehab so that it's clear how long and individual can remain in the treatment facility of choice.
