Drug Addiction Facts

  • Despite popular belief, caffeine does not affect the metabolism of alcohol by the liver and thus does not reduce breath alcohol concentrations or reduce the risk of alcohol-attributable harms.
  • Some of the reasons individuals give for abusing prescription drugs include academic pressures, maintaining focus with late-night study sessions, weight loss, feeling of euphoria, to cope with stress, and in party and social scenes.
  • Stimulant drugs are one of the few causes of cardiac death in otherwise normal children, making it impossible to detect the risk before it happens.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many men and women encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will often offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another type of private health insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals might want to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehab center which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment facility.
