Drug Addiction Facts

  • The first step in any inpatient rehabilitation program is a patient evaluation. The evaluation lets the treatment team assess the extent of each patient's physical addiction and identify any mental or physical health issues that need to be addressed.
  • Social circumstances are important in drug abuse. Peer pressure, emotional distress and low self-esteem can all lead individuals to abuse drugs. Ease of access to drugs is another influence.
  • Withdrawal symptoms can make quitting fentanyl and other opiates almost impossible, especially when one attempts to do so on one's own.

Partial Hospitalization/Day Treatment

Partial hospitalization, or Day Treatment as it is often called, is a drug rehab center meant for those who need and desire a comprehensive and organized rehab strategy and atmosphere yet don't require 24 / 7 supervision. It can help make people in treatment remain supported rehabilitation course of action without upsetting other activities they may need to maintain during treatment. Partial hospitalization/Day Treatment is also an alternative for many who have completed an inpatient or residential facility and want assistance with the smooth transition back to an average drug-free lifestyle.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues are what are identified in the field of alcohol and drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must address both disorders whilst in treatment in order to find resolution due to the fact one usually exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are several drug treatment centers that can specifically hone in on the issues that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face to be able to not simply become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never consider it wise to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but people really have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. Likewise, rehabilitation centers will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation programs will take Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other type of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to cover a more quality rehab facility which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could be eligible for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office within 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 within the state which offers the insurance coverage.
