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

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services in terms of level of care, because the individual can maintain their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a rehabilitation facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this may seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in rehabilitation have to have to experience a successful rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many men and women face. In addition, treatment centers will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present some other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehab facility that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug rehabilitation centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the person's rehab strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. When someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might be eligible for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some type of alcohol and drug rehab service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment programs.

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

There could be some limitations concerning how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it is clear just how long and individual can remain in the treatment program of preference.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

For example, Occasionally insurance only pays for a short-term facility when in reality a long-term program will likely be the more suitable option. To determine what payment assistance can be available, such as a sliding fee scale, seek advice from the program for particulars.
