Drug Addiction Facts

  • 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.
  • Alcohol destroys brain cells and unlike many other types of cells in the body, brain cells do not regenerate.
  • Studies indicate that adolescent marijuana use and early use of other illicit drugs make an individual more likely to continue using marijuana in their mid-30s or beyond.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of level of care, because the individual can maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation facility while undergoing rehab services. Even if this may appear ideal it may not provide the required change of environment than a lot of people in treatment need to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities have the staff or wherewithal to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more centers that can do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than previously. Therapy, study information and so on are now very often obtainable in Spanish in both long and short terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is available too nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present some other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment facility which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at drug rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with establishing the individual's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some kind of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug treatment programs. Individuals might have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab program which is inside their network of providers and there can be other limitations including the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good facility they prefer and consult with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will handle it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility made available from a number of drug and alcohol treatment programs to help help clients pay for treatment where this may not have been possible initially. As an example, one client's fee for treatment might be different and another person whose finances are better making them more prepared to spend the money for full expense of treatment. Registrars take into account variables aside from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
