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.
  • Six times as many people died of methadone overdoses in 2009 than did in 1999.
  • Since 1999, between 73 and 80% of poisoning deaths mentioning methadone were unintentional (3,701 such deaths in 2005), with an additional 11 to 13% of undetermined intent, 5 to 7% as suicides, less than 1 percent as homicides, and about 1 percent were injuries other than poisoning.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab solutions with regards to intensity of care, since the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation center while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this might seem ideal it might not provide the required change of environment than a lot of people in rehabilitation have to have to experience a successful rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the challenges that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can be difficult among the hearing impaired, there are ASL as well as other assistance services available for them when drug abuse treatment is needed. Besides ASL, such services may include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the help they need in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone'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 people in fact have a much more leverage because they can select whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people encounter. Likewise, treatment facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers will take Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehab program that will produce better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at drug and alcohol treatment centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in establishing the person's rehab plan. 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 treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't an option. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might be eligible for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some type of drug and alcohol treatment service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab programs. Individuals might have to take part in a drug rehabilitation center which is inside their network of providers and there could be other restrictions for example how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they prefer and meet with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular drug abuse rehabilitation solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some restrictions regarding just how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug treatment is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you start rehab so that it's clear just how long and individual can remain in the treatment program of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option provided by a variety of drug rehabilitation centers to help help clients pay for rehab where this might not have been possible originally. As an example, one client's fee for rehab could be different and less than someone else whose financial situation is better which makes them better able to spend the money for full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional factors apart from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
