  • Codeine is often prescribed in the form of syrup to treat the common cough, and "Purple Drank" is a slang term for codeine cough syrup which is combined with Sprite or Mountain Dew and pieces of Jolly Rancher candy for illicit abuse.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab solutions with regards to level of care, for the reason that individual can maintain their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to stay in a rehabilitation facility while undergoing rehab services. While this might appear perfect it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehabilitation need to experience a successful rehab.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who have a problem with substance abuse may have unique obstacles they have to conquer while in treatment, which treatment specialists within the facility they opt to be a part of should be keen of to ensure a complete recovery is possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is advisable to decide on a program which is familiar with helping seniors and older adults tackle the distinctive life and drug abuse issues that these clients face which can include a broader spectrum of services including medical treatment and so on.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present another kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality treatment facility that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug treatment centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in setting up the individual's rehab strategy. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment 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 drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they might be eligible for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some sort of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals may have to take part in a drug treatment center that's in their network of providers and there can be other limitations for example how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a good program they prefer and consult with a rehabilitation counselor to determine if their insurance will handle it.
