Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a number of settings with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to suit the varying needs of clients with any kind of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being covered by many insurance companies, there's no need to put off getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehabilitation services. While this may seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in rehabilitation need to have a successful rehabilitation.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to rehabilitation as a term of their sentencing. Often times, the offender can pick which rehabilitation program they would like to attend. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from reduced sentencing options to be able to move forward in their lives without getting penalized any more.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people actually have a much more leverage simply because they can choose whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. In addition, treatment centers will often provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals might want to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment facility that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some form of alcohol and drug treatment service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug treatment centers. Individuals could have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program that is in their network of providers and there may be other restrictions like how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a quality facility they prefer and consult with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.
