Drug Treatment Help Request

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in several settings along with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the varying needs of clients with any type of and amount of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance companies, there's no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions regarding intensity of care, because the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehabilitation services. While this might appear ideal it will not provide the required change of surroundings than lots of people in rehab require to have a productive rehabilitation.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehab centers will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Medicaid

Some treatment programs will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of facilities, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality treatment program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. When someone does not 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 ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance.
