Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are accessible to anybody who needs to be safely managed through detoxification services when seriously addicted to drugs and alcohol, or who wants a better spectrum of care such as someone who is dealing with a dual diagnosis so also needs mental health solutions during their treatment procedure. You can find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services accessible.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems are what are known in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must address both disorders during rehabilitation in order to find resolution because one usually triggers the other. Luckily, there are numerous alcohol and drug rehab facilities who are able to specifically hone in on the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face to be able to not just become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not wish to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can be hard among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL and other assistance services available for them when substance 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 obtaining the help they require in alcohol and drug treatment.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. In addition, treatment centers will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present any other kind of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehabilitation facility that will get better results, like a long-term residential drug treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in setting up the person's rehab plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare 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 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 be eligible for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some type of drug and alcohol rehab service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment programs. Individuals could have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehab center that's in their network of providers and there may be other restrictions such as the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good center they prefer and speak with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance covers it.
