Drug Addiction Facts

  • Animal studies indicate that animals will work more persistently at pressing a bar for cocaine than for any other drug, including opiates. In one example, one monkey test subject pressed the bar 12,800 times until it got a single dose of cocaine. If the animal survives in such studies, it will return to the task of obtaining more cocaine.
  • There is concern among pediatricians that using prescription stimulants on children may affect their development, and it is still unknown how these drugs biologically affect the developing brain.
  • Fentanyl oral lozenges and injectables are also commonly diverted and abused.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of level of care, as the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to stay in a rehabilitation facility while undergoing rehab services. Even if this might appear ideal it will not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in recovery have to have to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Partial Hospitalization/Day Treatment

Partial hospitalization, or Day Treatment as it is sometimes called, is a kind of drug and alcohol rehabilitation center meant for those who need and desire a comprehensive and structured rehab plan and atmosphere yet don't need 24 hours a day supervision. It can help make people in rehabilitation remain supported throughout the [[[rehab course of action without interfering with other day to day activities they might need to maintain during rehab. Partial hospitalization/Day Treatment is also a choice for many who have finished an inpatient or residential program and need assistance with the smooth transition back to a normal drug free lifestyle.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehab facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehab facilities will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present some other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality treatment center that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Medicare

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

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some type of drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals might have to participate in a drug rehab program that's inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations including how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a quality program they like and meet with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.
