Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions with regards to intensity of care, for the reason that individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation center while undergoing rehab services. Although this may seem perfect it might not provide the required change of environment than lots of people in recovery need to have a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug use problems are what are identified in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must handle both disorders when it's in rehabilitation to find resolution due to the fact one often triggers the other. Fortunately, there are lots of drug treatment facilities that can specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use disorders face in order to not just become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals face. In addition, rehab programs will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another type of private health insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality treatment facility that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with setting up the person's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment facilities. Individuals might have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment center that is inside their network of providers and there might be other restrictions such as just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a quality center they like and speak with a treatment specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

Military Insurance (E.G., Va, Tricare)

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the price of certain drug abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some restrictions concerning how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start treatment so that it is clear how much time and individual can stay in the rehab center of choice.
