Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a number of settings with different rehab lengths and plans to suit the various needs of clients with any type of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance plans, there's no need to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, since the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this might seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in rehab have to have to experience a successful rehabilitation.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the option or ordered to rehabilitation as a term of their sentencing. In many cases, the offender can choose which rehab center they wish to attend. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options in order to move forward in their lives without having to be penalized further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but people actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present another kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehabilitation center that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehab center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. If someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only in the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment centers. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program which is in their network of providers and there may be other restrictions including how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they prefer and meet with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain drug abuse treatment services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations concerning just how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin rehab so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehab facility of choice.
