Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of intensity of care, as the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehab program while undergoing treatment services. Although this may seem ideal it might not provide the required change of environment than many people in rehab require to experience a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse problems are what are recognized in the field of alcohol and drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must address both disorders whilst in rehab to find resolution simply because one typically exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are numerous drug treatment facilities that can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues face to be able to not only become abstinent but mentally secure and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and substance abuse due to challenges that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the issue can be hard among the hearing impaired, there are ASL as well as other assistance services available for them when substance abuse rehabilitation is required. Apart from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are receiving the support they need in alcohol and drug treatment.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug treatment programs have the staff or resources to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more centers that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than previously. Counselling, study information and so on are now frequently available in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which deliver inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is also available nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people face. In addition, rehabilitation facilities will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present any other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation facility that will produce 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 costs of drug and alcohol treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify 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 cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab facilities. Individuals could have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab center that's inside their network of providers and there could be other restrictions like how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good facility they prefer and meet with a treatment counselor to ascertain if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain drug abuse treatment services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some limitations as to how long a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you start rehab so that it is clear how long and individual can remain in the rehab facility of choice.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option provided by a number of alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in order to help individuals afford rehabilitation where this may not have been possible originally. By way of example, one client's fee for rehabilitation may be different and somebody else whose financial situation is better which makes them more prepared to pay for the full expense of treatment. Registrars take into account variables apart from income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug rehab programs provide payment assistance to help clients who might not have enough resources to self pay for rehab or whose health insurance won't provide coverage or full coverage for his or her stay. As an example, Sometimes insurance only covers a short-term facility when in reality a long-term facility is going to be the more appropriate selection. To determine what payment assistance may be available, for instance a sliding fee scale, talk with the center for details.
