Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services in terms of level of care, as the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehab center while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this may seem ideal it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in treatment require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Partial Hospitalization/Day Treatment

Partial hospitalization, or Day Treatment as it's occasionally called, is a type of alcohol and drug treatment facility meant for individuals who need and require a thorough and structured treatment strategy and environment yet don't require night and day supervision. It can help make men and women in rehab stay supported rehabilitation course of action without disturbing other day to day activities they might need to maintain during treatment. Partial hospitalization/Day Treatment is also a choice for many who have finished an inpatient or residential facility and need assistance with the smooth transition back into an average drug-free way of life.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehab programs will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present another form of private health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals might want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality treatment program which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug rehab centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the center is 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 plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might qualify for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.
