Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab solutions with regards to level of care, as the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to stay in a treatment program while receiving rehab services. While this might appear perfect it may not provide the required change of environment than a lot of people in treatment need to have a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems are what are recognized in the field of alcohol and drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must deal with both disorders while in rehab in order to find resolution simply because one usually triggers the other. Luckily, there are many drug treatment centers who can specifically hone in on the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders face to enable them to not only become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who battle with substance abuse could possibly have distinctive challenges they must overcome during rehab, which rehab professionals in the center they choose to be a part of must be keen of to ensure a full recovery is achievable. So for seniors and older adults, it is advisable to pick a program which is acquainted with helping seniors and older adults deal with the distinctive life and substance abuse issues that these clients face which can include a wider spectrum of services including medical care and the like.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue is often difficult among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL as well as other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse rehab is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are receiving the support they need in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people face. Likewise, treatment facilities will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some treatment programs will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present some other type of private health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only inside the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehab facilities. Individuals may have to participate in a drug rehabilitation facility which is within their network of providers and there can be other limitations such as how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a quality center they prefer and consult with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance covers it.
