Drug Addiction Facts

  • Codeine is not as powerful as morphine, which is also found in poppies, yet it is still the most widely used opiate in the world.
  • Physical addiction is characterized by the presence of tolerance (needing more and more of the drug to achieve the same effect).
  • At an inpatient facility, the individual has constant access to qualified doctors, nurses and therapists who can provide medical attention or any other support.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a variety of settings with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to accommodate the various needs of clients with any sort of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being covered by many insurance plans, you shouldn't have to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, since the individual can keep their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to remain in a treatment facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Although this might seem perfect it may not provide the much needed change of surroundings than lots of people in recovery require to have a successful rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and drug abuse due to problems their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem can sometimes be difficult among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL and also other assistance services available for them when drug abuse treatment is required. Besides ASL, such services can include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the help they require in drug and alcohol rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality treatment program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a choice. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some type of drug and alcohol treatment service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug treatment facilities. Individuals might have to participate in a drug treatment program that's inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations for example how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.
