Drug Addiction Facts

  • Inpatient treatment does not include detox as that usually occurs in a hospital environment but follows it.
  • Cocaine abusers are at increased risk for contracting infectious diseases such as human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) and viral hepatitis, not only from sharing contaminated needles and drug paraphernalia but also from engaging in risky behaviors as a result of intoxication.
  • Children of alcoholics are at higher risk for disruptive behavioral problems and are more likely than children whose parents are not alcoholics to be sensation seeking, aggressive, and impulsive.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a number of settings and with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to accommodate the varying needs of clients with any kind of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential programs now being covered by many insurance companies, you don't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab solutions in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual can maintain their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation center while receiving treatment services. Even if this might seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehab require to have a productive rehabilitation.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the choice or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. Quite often, the offender can decide which rehab center they would like to enroll in. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options to enable them to move ahead in their lives without having to be penalized further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can select whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, rehabilitation programs will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular substance abuse treatment solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some restrictions as to just how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered prior to starting treatment so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehab program of preference.
