Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of level of care, because the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehab center while undergoing treatment services. Although this may appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than lots of people in rehabilitation require to have a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues are what are identified in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must deal with both disorders when it's in treatment in order to find resolution because one often triggers the other. Luckily, there are many alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers who are able to specifically address the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders face in order to not merely become abstinent but mentally secure 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 have trouble with drug abuse could have unique obstacles they must overcome during rehabilitation, which rehab specialists in the center they decide to take part in should be keen of in order that a complete recovery is possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is prudent to choose a facility that's accustomed to helping seniors and older adults deal with the unique life and drug use problems that these clients face which can include a wider spectrum of services including medical care and the like.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse due to the problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL along with other assistance services intended for them when drug abuse treatment is necessary. Aside from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the help they need in drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present any other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality treatment center which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehab program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at drug rehabilitation facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with setting up the person's rehab strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab 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. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug rehabilitation service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment programs. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment facility that's within their network of providers and there can be other restrictions such as how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a quality facility they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain substance abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs and also partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There can be some limitations about how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it's clear just how long and individual can stay in the rehabilitation center of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option offered by many different drug rehabilitation programs to help help clients pay for rehab where this may not have been doable initially. As an example, one client's price for rehab may be different and lower than someone else whose financial situation is better making them better able to spend the money for full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration variables aside from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
