Outpatient

Outpatient solutions 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 lots of ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehab program while undergoing treatment services. Even if this may appear perfect it may not provide the required change of surroundings than a lot of people in rehabilitation have to have to experience a productive rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and substance abuse due to problems their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and also other assistance services available for them when drug abuse rehab is required. Apart from ASL, such services can include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are obtaining the support they require in drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of treatment or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many men and women face. In addition, rehabilitation programs will often provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment programs accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other form of private health insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals might want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehabilitation facility which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If a person has no private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some type of alcohol and drug rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehab programs. Individuals may have to participate in a drug treatment program that's inside their network of providers and there can be other limitations including just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they prefer and consult with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option offered by many different alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in an effort to help individuals afford rehabilitation where this may not have been possible initially. For example, one client's fee for rehabilitation might be different and less than another individual whose financial situation is better making them better able to spend the money for full price of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration variables besides income including amount of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
