You can find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services available.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present any other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehab center which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug rehab facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in establishing the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only inside the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug and alcohol treatment service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment programs. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment facility that's in their network of providers and there may be other limitations such as the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to find out if their insurance covers it.

Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative.
