There are both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services accessible.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and substance abuse as a result of challenges their impairment impose on them. While detection of the issue can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL along with other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse rehabilitation is necessary. Besides ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the help they require in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, treatment facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present some other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehabilitation program that will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug treatment centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with setting up the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. When someone does not 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 fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only in the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals could have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment program which is in their network of providers and there can be other limitations for example how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent facility they like and meet with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance covers it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option provided by a variety of drug rehab programs in order to help individuals pay for rehab where this might not have been doable originally. By way of example, one client's fee for treatment could be different and another individual whose finances are better which makes them better able to pay the full expense of rehab. Registrars take into consideration variables besides income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
