Drug Addiction Facts

  • An estimated 1.1 million Americans used Ecstasy for the first time in 2009, which is a significant increase from the 894,000 first-time users reported in 2008.
  • Ecstasy is not a "fun" party drug which is as benign as some would think, and often results in the same physical effects as other stimulants, such as cocaine and amphetamines including increases in heart rate and blood pressure.
  • A recent study regarding the placebo effect in children whose parents and teachers were told they had been put on the ADHD drug Adderall, which in fact was a placebo pill, found that many cases diagnosed as ADHD may only be in the mind, for both the children diagnosed with the disorder and their parents and teachers.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services regarding level of care, for the reason that individual can keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to remain in a treatment program while receiving treatment services. While this might seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of environment than lots of people in treatment need to have a successful rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the problems their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL along with other assistance services designed for them when substance abuse treatment is required. Aside from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the help they require in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol treatment programs have the staff or wherewithal to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more programs that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Therapy, study data and the like are actually very often accessible in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is also available around the country.

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 individuals actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug and alcohol rehab centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with setting up the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only inside the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug treatment service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment facilities. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab center that is inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations such as just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they like and consult with a rehab specialist to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities and also partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some restrictions about how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehab center of preference.
