Drug Addiction Facts

  • In 2011, over 4 million Americans aged 12 or older reported that they had used heroin at least once in their lives.
  • Some studies indicate that cocaine users who do not inject the drug are contracting HIV at rates equal to those who do inject it, further highlighting the role of sexual transmission of HIV in this population.
  • A methamphetamine high lasts longer than a cocaine high yet costs about the same, which is why it is sometimes referred to as the "poor man's cocaine."

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to intensity of care, for the reason that individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. While this might appear perfect it might not provide the required change of surroundings than many individuals in recovery have to have to have a successful rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse because of the challenges their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL as well as other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse treatment is needed. Other than ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired people are obtaining the support they require in drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehab facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present some other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals might want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality treatment facility which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with setting up the individual's rehab plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some kind of drug treatment service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment facilities. Individuals could have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab center that is in their network of providers and there can be other limitations for example how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick a good facility they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation counselor to determine if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain substance abuse rehab services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some restrictions as to just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehab is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it's clear the length of time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation facility of choice.
