Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services in terms of intensity of care, as the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehab center while receiving rehab services. While this may seem perfect it may not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in rehab have to have to have a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues are what are recognized in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must deal with both disorders during rehabilitation to find resolution simply because one usually exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are many alcohol and drug rehab centers who are able to specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face so that they can not simply become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not wish to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to meet part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehabilitation frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug treatment specifications enforced with them as part of sentencing and also naturally when successfully graduating a drug rehab center.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the challenges that their impairment impose on them. While detection of this problem can sometimes be difficult among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL and other assistance services designed for them when substance abuse rehabilitation is needed. Other than ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are obtaining the help they require in drug and alcohol rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present any other form of private health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and drum 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 and alcohol rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug rehabilitation programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in establishing the person's rehab strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they should consult their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some type of drug and alcohol rehab service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab facilities. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility that is in their network of providers and there can be other limitations like the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select an excellent facility they prefer and speak 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 expense of certain substance abuse treatment solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some restrictions as to just how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehab so that it is clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehab facility of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility available from a variety of drug treatment programs to help help clients pay for rehab where this might not have been doable initially. As an example, one client's fee for treatment could be different and less than another person whose financial situation is better making them better able to pay for the full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into consideration additional factors aside from income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.
