Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of level of care, as the individual can preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehabilitation facility while receiving rehab services. While this might seem ideal it may not provide the required change of surroundings than a lot of people in recovery require to have a productive rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals really have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, rehab centers will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment facility which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in setting up the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities. Individuals may have to participate in a drug rehabilitation facility which is in their network of providers and there might be other limitations such as how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent program they like and meet with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain drug abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities and also partial hospitalization are 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 might be some limitations as to how much time a stay in inpatient drug rehab is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehab so that it is clear how long and individual can remain in the treatment center of choice.
