Drug Treatment Help Request

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a variety of settings along with different rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the varying demands of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being covered by many insurance companies, you shouldn't have to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of intensity of care, as the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to stay in a rehabilitation program while receiving rehabilitation services. Even though this may appear ideal it may not provide the required change of environment than a lot of people in rehabilitation require to experience a productive rehab.

Spanish

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

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but individuals really have a great deal of leverage simply because they can choose whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehab facility that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in setting up the person's treatment plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being exactly like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being paid for through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone has no 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 figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug and alcohol treatment service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment facilities. Individuals could have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment facility that is within their network of providers and there can be other limitations including how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they prefer and meet with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain substance abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers in addition to partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some restrictions about how much time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before beginning rehabilitation so that it is clear the length of time and individual can stay in the rehabilitation program of preference.
