Drug Addiction Facts

  • Circumstances such as lower income and marital rates, high jobless rates and having marijuana-using acquaintances during adolescence and young adulthood are commonly reported among recreational marijuana users.
  • THC in marijuana is rapidly absorbed by fatty tissues in various organs, and traces of the THC found in marijuana can be detected by standard urine testing methods several days after smoking the drug.
  • Prescription stimulants can suppress appetite, resulting in fewer calories consumed, which could in turn effect growth and development in children.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anybody who should be safely managed through detoxification services when seriously dependent to drugs and/or alcohol, or who wants a broader spectrum of care such as someone who has a dual diagnosis and also needs mental health services as part of their rehabilitation process. You will find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services available.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders are what are identified in the field of alcohol and drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must tackle both disorders whilst in rehabilitation to find resolution because one typically exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are several alcohol and drug rehab programs that can specifically address the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues face to be able to not just become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not wish to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug abuse due to the challenges their impairment impose on them. While detection of this problem can be difficult among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL along with other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is required. Aside from ASL, such services may include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are obtaining the support they need in drug and alcohol rehab.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug treatment facilities possess the staff or wherewithal to cater to the requirements of Spanish speaking clientele, but thankfully there are more and more facilities that can do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than any other time. Therapy, study information and the like are now frequently available in Spanish in both long and short terms centers which deliver inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present another type of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug rehab programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Part B.

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 treatment service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals could have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility which is within their network of providers and there can be other restrictions like how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a quality center they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular substance abuse treatment solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise 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 will be answered before you begin treatment so that it's clear just how long and individual can stay in the rehabilitation program of choice.
