Drug Addiction Facts

  • As cocaine passes from the importer to the user, it is typically diluted or "cut" at each stage of distribution to increase each dealer's profit. The user never typically knows how pure the product they are using is.
  • All stimulants, whether prescription or illicit such as methamphetamine, work by increasing dopamine levels in the brain; dopamine is a brain chemical which has to do with pleasure, movement, and attention. This is what produces a high when abused.
  • As with other opiate narcotics, methadone creates a feeling of well-being and binds to the same receptors in the brain as heroin and other drugs.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to intensity of care, as the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to be in a treatment program while receiving treatment services. While this might appear perfect it will not provide the required change of surroundings than a lot of people in treatment have to have to experience a productive rehab.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation as part of a court order to fulfill part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when cooperating with drug rehabilitation specifications enforced with them as part of sentencing and also naturally when successfully completing an alcohol and drug rehab facility.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers possess the staff or wherewithal to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clients, but luckily there are more and more facilities that are able to do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Therapy, study data and stuff like that are now frequently obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is available too nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but people actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many people face. In addition, treatment facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present some other kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehabilitation center which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility offered by many different alcohol and drug treatment programs in an effort to help clients afford treatment where this may not have been doable initially. By way of example, one client's fee for rehabilitation may be different and someone else whose finances are better making them better able to spend the money for full price of treatment. Registrars take into account additional factors aside from income including number of dependents to determine the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
