Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, because the individual can keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation facility while receiving rehabilitation services. While this may seem perfect it might not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many individuals in rehab have to have to have a successful rehab.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in establishing the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some type of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals may have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehab program that's in their network of providers and there could be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a quality program they like and meet with a rehabilitation specialist to ascertain if their insurance covers it.
