Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings along with various treatment lengths and plans to accommodate the various demands of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance companies, there is no need to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Detoxification

Detoxification from drugs and alcohol is really a process which can be made far more manageable and safely overseen when in a proper detoxification or alcohol and drug treatment facility. Sometimes detoxification isn't risk free, and even with good intentions individuals who proceed through detoxification on their own in an effort to get sober could actually be putting their health and even their lives at risk. It is usually far better to seek out detoxification services inside a professional program in order to avoid such dangers as well as have a smooth progression from detoxification to treatment in a quality drug and alcohol rehab program.

Halfway House

A halfway house is a place that allows for a smooth transition if somebody has become sober on their own or has completed a drug and alcohol rehab center and needs help re-acclimating to a normal lifestyle. Living in a halfway house, or sober living facility as it is sometimes called, is part of sentencing if a person is found guilty of drug charges as well. If assistance is needed finding a halfway house, talk to a drug treatment program and consult with a treatment counselor who will be able to point you towards the right direction.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of level of care, since the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation center while receiving treatment services. While this might seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many individuals in rehabilitation need to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Residential Long-Term Treatment (More Than 30 Days)

Residential long-term rehabilitation, which lasts for more than four weeks, is definitely an option that delivers the commensurate intensity of care and appropriate environment for anybody fighting a significant addiction and dependency problem. Because people will continue to be inside a residential long-term rehabilitation program for 3-6 months and even longer in some cases, these types of programs provide all the amenities needed to help client's remain as relaxed and amenable as it could possibly be while also providing quality treatment to enable them to overcome their addiction for good.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use problems are what are known in the field of drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must handle both disorders during treatment to find resolution due to the fact one usually triggers the other. Luckily, there are many drug rehabilitation facilities who are able to specifically address the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues face to enable them to not merely become abstinent but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not feel the need to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to treatment as a term of their sentencing. Often times, the offender can decide which treatment center they would like to attend. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from reduced sentencing options to enable them to move ahead in their lives without getting penalized any more.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to fulfill part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehab often receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when cooperating with drug and alcohol rehabilitation specifications enforced on them in sentencing and particularly naturally when successfully graduating a drug and alcohol treatment center.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and substance abuse as a result of problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue can be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services designed for them when substance abuse rehabilitation is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are obtaining the support they require in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a much more leverage simply because they can choose whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehab programs will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some kind of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs. Individuals could have to take part in a drug treatment program which is in their network of providers and there could be other restrictions including how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good facility they prefer and speak with a rehab counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option made available from a variety of drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs to help help individuals afford rehab where this may not have been doable originally. For instance, one client's price for rehabilitation may be different and another person whose finances are better which makes them better able to spend the money for full expense of rehab. Registrars take into account variables besides income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
