Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a variety of settings and with various rehab lengths and plans to suit the various needs of clients with any type of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance plans, there's no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to level of care, since the individual can keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to be in a rehab facility while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this might seem perfect it might not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in recovery need to experience a successful rehabilitation.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the option or ordered to rehabilitation as a term of their sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can select which rehabilitation center they would like to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from reduced sentencing options in order to move forward in their lives without getting penalized any further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation centers will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but generally only in the state which provides the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug treatment service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment facilities. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug rehab center that is within their network of providers and there might be other limitations for example the amount of time their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select an excellent facility they like and speak with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option available from a variety of alcohol and drug treatment programs in an effort to help clients pay for rehab where this may not have been possible initially. For instance, one client's fee for rehab might be different and less than another individual whose financial situation is better which makes them more prepared to spend the money for full cost of rehab. Registrars consider other factors besides income including number of dependents to ascertain the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers provide payment assistance to help clients who may not have sufficient money to self pay for rehab or whose health insurance won't provide coverage or total coverage for his or her stay. As an example, Sometimes insurance only covers a short-term center when in reality a long-term facility will be the more appropriate selection. To determine what payment assistance might be available, for instance a sliding fee scale, talk with the center for details.
