Drug Addiction Facts

  • The Food and Drug Administration now requires the manufactures of prescription stimulants to warn users of the cardiovascular problems that could be associated with the use of these types of medications.
  • Animal studies indicate that animals will work more persistently at pressing a bar for cocaine than for any other drug, including opiates. In one example, one monkey test subject pressed the bar 12,800 times until it got a single dose of cocaine. If the animal survives in such studies, it will return to the task of obtaining more cocaine.
  • About 1 in 10 teens uses cough syrup or cold medicine to get high, including cough syrups containing codeine.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of intensity of care, since the individual can maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to be in a treatment facility while undergoing rehabilitation services.

Spanish

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can decide on whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women face.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present some other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may wish to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehabilitation center which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.

Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option offered by a number of alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in order to help individuals afford rehab where this might not have been possible initially. For example, one client's fee for rehabilitation might be different and lower than another person whose finances are better making them better able to pay for the full price of rehab. Registrars take into account additional factors besides income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)
