Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a number of settings and with various treatment lengths and plans to accommodate the various needs of clients with any type of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential programs now being covered by many insurance plans, there is no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of level of care, because the individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to be in a rehab program while receiving rehabilitation services. Even though this might appear ideal it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than lots of people in rehab have to have to experience a successful rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to rehab as a term of their sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can choose which rehabilitation facility they would like to go to. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of reduced sentencing options in order to progress in their lives without having to be penalized any further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women encounter. In addition, rehabilitation facilities will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some type of drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment centers. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment center that is in their network of providers and there could be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select an excellent program they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation counselor to determine if their insurance will handle it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option offered by a variety of alcohol and drug treatment centers to help help clients pay for treatment where this may not have been doable originally. As an example, one client's price for rehabilitation could possibly be different and lower than someone else whose finances are better making them better able to pay for the full price of rehab. Registrars consider variables apart from income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.
