Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions with regards to level of care, since the individual can keep their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of having to be in a rehabilitation center while undergoing treatment services. While this may seem ideal it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than many individuals in recovery need to experience a successful rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can be hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL and also other assistance services available for them when substance abuse treatment is necessary. Other than ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the support they need in drug rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers possess the staff or wherewithal to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clients, 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 the like are now very often obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, rehab centers will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

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

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug rehab centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in setting up the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehab centers. Individuals might have to take part in a drug rehabilitation program that is in their network of providers and there could be other restrictions including how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a good program they like and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some restrictions regarding the length of time a stay in inpatient drug rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start treatment so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of choice.
