Drug Addiction Facts

  • Older adults who drink have an increased sensitivity to alcohol due to the fact that aging can lower the body's tolerance for alcohol, and therefore experience the effects of alcohol more readily than when they were younger.
  • According to the Center for Disease Control, methadone use is riskier than other prescription painkiller use because levels build up in the body and may interfere with a person's normal heart rhythm or breathing.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in several settings and with different rehabilitation lengths and plans to accommodate the varying demands of clients with any kind of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being covered by many insurance plans, there is no need to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions with regards to intensity of care, because the individual can maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to stay in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this may seem perfect it might not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than a lot of people in treatment require to experience a successful rehab.

Women

Women have to have quality rehabilitation in rehab but will also need particular awareness of the unique issues they face because of gender. Males and females not only face different and unique challenges in daily life as a result of gender, but also may abuse drugs and alcohol for very different reasons. alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs which focus on women and the distinctive and unique needs that women encounter can help significantly on a women's road to long term sobriety and a higher quality of life.

Men

Similar to how men and women encounter varying and different challenges in daily life that happen to be specific to their gender, men and women may also encounter distinctive challenges in rehabilitation that are gender-specific, and that's why a center designed specifically with these unique needs and obstacles in mind can be be extremely helpful for someone searching for an effective rehabilitation option.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present any other type of private health insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may wish to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality treatment facility which will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug rehab programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in establishing the person's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some type of drug rehab service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals may have to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment center which is in their network of providers and there might be other limitations for example the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select a quality program they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There could be some restrictions concerning how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehab program of choice.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

For instance, Sometimes insurance only covers a short-term center when in fact a long-term center will be the more appropriate selection. To see what payment assistance could be offered, say for example a sliding fee scale, seek advice from the center for particulars.
