Drug Addiction Facts

  • Codeine is a legal prescription drug but it is addictive, with prolonged use resulting in the same adverse effects as any other illicit drug.
  • While an inpatient program for addiction is meant to provide care in a hospital or clinic setting, a residential program is intended to give a more home-like, welcoming feel.
  • Ecstasy is not a "fun" party drug which is as benign as some would think, and often results in the same physical effects as other stimulants, such as cocaine and amphetamines including increases in heart rate and blood pressure.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are accessible to anybody that should be safely managed through detoxification services when intensely dependent to drugs and/or alcohol, or who requires a broader spectrum of care such as somebody who is dealing with a dual diagnosis so also requires mental health solutions during their treatment procedure. You'll find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services accessible.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and substance abuse due to the challenges their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem is often difficult among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and other assistance services available for them when drug abuse rehab is required. Aside from ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the help they need in drug treatment.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can choose whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. In addition, treatment programs will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehab center which will get better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with establishing the person's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some form of drug and alcohol rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center that's in their network of providers and there might be other limitations for example the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select a good center they like and meet with a rehab specialist to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some limitations concerning how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehabilitation so that it's clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehab facility of choice.
