Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of intensity of care, since the individual can maintain their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to remain in a treatment center while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this might appear perfect it might not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehabilitation require to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug use problems are what are recognized in the field of drug and alcohol rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must address both disorders while in treatment to find resolution because one typically triggers the other. Luckily, there are many drug rehab facilities who can specifically address the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face in order to not just become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who battle with drug abuse could have distinctive challenges they have to conquer when in rehabilitation, which rehabilitation specialists within the program they decide to be a part of should be keen of in order that a complete recovery may be possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is wise to pick a center that's used to helping seniors and older adults deal with the unique life and substance abuse problems that these clients face that might include a broader spectrum of solutions including medical treatment and the like.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and substance abuse due to the problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services available for them when substance abuse rehabilitation is required. Besides ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the support they need in drug and alcohol treatment.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug treatment facilities have the staff or resources to focus on the requirements of Spanish speaking clientele, but fortunately there are more and more programs that can do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Counselling, study data and so on are actually very often obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available nationwide.

Other Languages

In each and every city in the U.S. there is someone fighting substance abuse that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who might require rehab in whichever language it is that they are fluent in so that their needs can be catered to properly during treatment. Thankfully, there are numerous drug and alcohol rehab facilities which have counselors on staff who speak other languages to make alcohol and drug rehab the most effective experience possible for anyone. Simply locate a quality drug rehabilitation program and find out if it is feasible to receive rehabilitation in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a much more leverage because they can choose whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. In addition, rehab facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present any other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality treatment facility which will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug and alcohol treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in setting up the person's treatment plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option provided by a variety of alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in order to help individuals afford rehab where this might not have been doable initially. For example, one client's price for rehab might be different and lower than another person whose financial situation is better which makes them better able to pay for the full price of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional factors apart from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
