Drug Addiction Facts

  • Everyone handles methadone differently, and one 50mg dose of methadone might be tolerable for one individual, but may cause a methadone overdose in another.
  • All stimulants, whether prescription or illicit such as methamphetamine, work by increasing dopamine levels in the brain; dopamine is a brain chemical which has to do with pleasure, movement, and attention. This is what produces a high when abused.
  • Alcoholism and alcohol abuse is known to facilitate HIV infection in exposed individuals, accelerate the disease process and the death of people with AIDS.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions with regards to level of care, for the reason that individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to stay in a rehab program while undergoing treatment services. Even if this may seem ideal it might not provide the required change of environment than lots of people in recovery require to have a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues are what are known in the field of drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must handle both disorders while in treatment in order to find resolution simply because one typically exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are several drug treatment facilities who can specifically hone in on the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face so that they can not only become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not feel the need to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab due to a court ruling to satisfy part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug treatment often receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when cooperating with drug rehab requirements enforced with them in sentencing especially of course when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug rehab facility.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehab programs will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment centers will take Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present some other kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation facility which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in setting up the individual's rehab 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 rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only in the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some type of drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment programs. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment program that's in their network of providers and there could be other limitations for example how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they prefer and consult with a treatment counselor to determine if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular substance abuse treatment solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers in addition to partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some limitations about the length of time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you begin rehab so that it's clear just how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option available from a number of drug and alcohol treatment programs in order to help clients afford rehabilitation where this might not have been possible originally. As an example, one client's fee for treatment could possibly be different and lower than someone else whose finances are better which makes them more prepared to pay the full price of rehab. Registrars take into consideration other factors apart from income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
