100% Confidential.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab solutions in terms of intensity of care, because the individual can preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to remain in a rehab program while receiving rehabilitation services. Although this may seem perfect it may not provide the required change of surroundings than many people in treatment require to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug treatment programs have the staff or resources to cater to the requirements of Spanish speaking clientele, but thankfully there are more and more facilities that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than any other time. Counselling, study information and the like are actually very often accessible in Spanish in both long and short terms centers which provide inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is also available nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but people actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women encounter. In addition, treatment centers will usually offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation programs accept Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present some other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation facility which will get better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug rehab programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the facility is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help in establishing the person's rehab plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only within the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some form of drug and alcohol rehab service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center which is within their network of providers and there could be other limitations including the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good center they prefer and meet with a treatment specialist to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain drug abuse rehab services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with 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 might be some restrictions regarding how long a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is allowed, and every one of these questions can be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the treatment center of preference.
