Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to intensity of care, as the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to be in a treatment center while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this might seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehab need to experience a successful rehab.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab as part of a court order to fulfill a part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehab frequently receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when cooperating with drug rehabilitation requirements enforced with them in sentencing especially of course when successfully graduating a drug rehabilitation facility.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse due to problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can often be difficult among the hearing impaired, there are ASL and also other assistance services readily available for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is required. Apart from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the help they need in drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but people actually have a great deal of leverage because they can choose whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehab centers will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality treatment program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab facility.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some type of drug and alcohol treatment service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab facilities. Individuals could have to take part in a drug rehab program that is within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a good program they prefer and meet with a rehab specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain substance abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some limitations concerning just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you begin rehab so that it is clear how long and individual can stay in the treatment program of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option available from a number of alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers to help help clients afford rehabilitation where this might not have been possible initially. By way of example, one client's fee for rehabilitation could possibly be different and less than somebody else whose financial situation is better which makes them more prepared to pay for the full expense of treatment. Registrars consider additional factors apart from income including amount of dependents to determine the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
