Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment solutions regarding level of care, for the reason that individual can preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to be in a treatment center while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this might appear perfect it will not provide the required change of atmosphere than lots of people in rehab require to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women encounter. In addition, rehab programs will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take 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 inside a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehabilitation center which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug rehab centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment facilities. Individuals may have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center which is in their network of providers and there could be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a quality program they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to determine if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain drug abuse rehab services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some restrictions about just how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered before beginning rehab so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option available from numerous drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in an effort to help clients afford rehabilitation where this may not have been doable originally. For instance, one client's price for rehab might be different and somebody else whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay for the full cost of rehab. Registrars take into account additional factors besides income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.
