Drug Addiction Facts

  • Just quitting codeine cold turkey once addicted is not considered treatment at all, and most addicts will often return to regular abuse of prescription codeine in short order.
  • Additives found in heroin do not always readily dissolve, which can causing clogging in the blood vessels that can lead to the lungs, liver, kidneys, or brain; these incidences can cause infection in the small patches of cells in vital organs.
  • In the case of fentanyl addiction, an individual will typically take more fentanyl or another opiate narcotic to relieve withdrawal symptoms if they have become dependent to the drug.

Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol treatment often receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when cooperating with drug treatment requirements enforced on them in sentencing specifically naturally when successfully completing an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid in the event the individual is not able to self pay or present any other kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality treatment facility which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug and alcohol rehab programs 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 aid in establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being covered 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 rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may qualify for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance.
