Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual can maintain their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to be in a treatment program while receiving treatment services. Although this may seem perfect it might not provide the much needed change of environment than many people in treatment need to have a successful rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse due to challenges that their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem is often hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL and also other assistance services available for them when substance abuse rehab is required. Other than ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are receiving the support they need in drug rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but people in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, rehabilitation programs will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present another type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality rehab facility which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at drug rehab programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in setting up the person's treatment plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.
