Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of intensity of care, since the individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehab center while undergoing rehab services. Even if this might appear ideal it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehabilitation require to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many people face. In addition, rehab programs will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present another form of private health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality treatment center which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some type of drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehab programs. Individuals may have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehab center that is within their network of providers and there could be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent center they like and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.
