Drug Addiction Facts

  • 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.
  • Not all inpatient drug/alcohol rehabilitations are alike. The type of care, treatment and counseling provided in the various rehab programs will have much to do with lasting sobriety.
  • Prescription opioid pain medications such as Oxycontin and Vicodin can have effects similar to heroin, and statistics and studies indicate that abuse of these drugs may open the door to heroin abuse.

100% Confidential.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to intensity of care, because the individual can keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehabilitation facility while receiving rehabilitation services. Even though this may appear ideal it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than many people in rehab require to have a productive rehabilitation.

Gays and Lesbians

It is important that gays and lesbians obtain quality rehab services in a rehabilitation setting which is discreet and with treatment specialists available to them who understand the unique problems that they can experience in life. Because drug abuse for gays and lesbians might be triggered by the problems they face because of their sexual preference, a program which can help them handle these problems and give them the peace of mind they may have lacked prior to arriving in rehabilitation is usually a crucial part of treatment for gay and lesbian clients.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehab programs have the staff or resources to focus on the demands of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more facilities that can do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than any other time. Therapy, study data and stuff like that are now very often accessible in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is available too around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a much more leverage because they can choose whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, rehabilitation programs will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present any other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation program which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab facilities. Individuals could have to take part in a drug rehabilitation center that's in their network of providers and there might be other restrictions for example the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they like and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain substance abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers as well as partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some limitations regarding how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered before you begin rehab so that it's clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of choice.
