Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services in terms of level of care, for the reason that individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehab program while receiving rehab services. Even if this might appear perfect it may 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 required when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation centers will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment facilities accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals may want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality treatment facility that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in setting up the individual's rehab plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab facilities. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center which is inside their network of providers and there could be other restrictions like the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent facility they like and consult with a rehab counselor to ascertain if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain drug abuse treatment services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some limitations about how much time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin rehab so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehab program of choice.
