Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation center while receiving treatment services. While this may seem perfect it might not provide the much needed change of environment than many people in treatment need to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people face. In addition, treatment programs will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some form of alcohol and drug treatment service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab facilities. Individuals could have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment facility that is inside their network of providers and there may be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good facility they prefer and speak with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some limitations concerning just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehab so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehab program of preference.
