Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab solutions with regards to level of care, since the individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to remain in a treatment facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even if this might seem ideal it might not provide the required change of atmosphere than lots of people in treatment need to experience a productive rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse as a result of problems that their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem can often be difficult among the hearing impaired, there are ASL and also other assistance services available for them when drug abuse treatment is necessary. Aside from ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired folks are obtaining the support they need in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehab programs possess the staff or resources to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clientele, but thankfully there are more and more centers that are able to do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than previously. Therapy, study information and so on are actually frequently obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which deliver inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment programs will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment programs accept Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present some other kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals might want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality treatment facility that will get better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in setting up the person's rehabilitation strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehab centers. Individuals could possibly have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment facility which is within their network of providers and there can be other restrictions including how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select a quality facility they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation 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 price of certain substance abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some restrictions concerning how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin rehab so that it's clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehab program of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option made available from a number of alcohol and drug rehab centers to help help clients pay for rehabilitation where this may not have been doable initially. For example, one client's fee for treatment may be different and less than another individual whose finances are better making them more prepared to pay for the full price of rehabilitation. Registrars consider additional factors in addition to income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs offer payment assistance to help individuals who might not have sufficient resources to self pay for treatment or whose health insurance won't supply coverage or full coverage for their stay. As an example, Sometimes insurance only pays for a short-term program when in reality a long-term program is going to be the more appropriate option. To find out what payment assistance could be available, such as a sliding fee scale, seek advice from the facility for details.
