Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in many different settings along with different treatment lengths and plans to accommodate the varying demands of clients with any sort of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance plans, you don't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment solutions with regards to intensity of care, because the individual can preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehab program while receiving rehab services. Although this may seem perfect it may not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many people in rehab need to have a successful rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but people in fact have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. Likewise, treatment facilities will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at alcohol and drug treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in establishing the individual's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some form of drug and alcohol treatment service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment center that is in their network of providers and there can be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they like and consult with a rehabilitation specialist to find out 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 drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There can be some limitations about the length of time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before beginning rehab so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation center of preference.
