Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in many different settings and with various rehab lengths and plans to suit the varying needs of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being covered by many insurance plans, you don't have to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of level of care, since the individual can keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to remain in a treatment program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even if this may seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many people in treatment need to have a successful rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to treatment as a term of their sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can select which rehab center they would like to go to. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options so that they can move forward in their lives without getting penalized any more.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. In addition, rehab facilities will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present some other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality treatment program that will get better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but typically only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab centers. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab facility that's in their network of providers and there might be other limitations such as the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a quality center they like and consult with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance will take care of it.
