Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab solutions with regards to level of care, because the individual can keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to remain in a treatment program while receiving rehabilitation services. Even though this might seem perfect it might not provide the required change of environment than many individuals in treatment need to have a productive rehab.

Other Languages

In every city in the U.S. there's someone struggling with drug abuse that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who might need rehab in whatever language it is they are fluent in to ensure their needs can be met properly while in rehabilitation. Fortunately, there are many alcohol and drug treatment centers who have counselors within their facility who speak other languages to make drug and alcohol rehabilitation the best experience possible for anyone. Simply discover a high quality drug rehabilitation program and inquire if it is possible to receive treatment in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many individuals encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation centers will often offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual cannot self pay or present some other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may wish to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to cover a more quality rehabilitation center that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at alcohol and drug rehab centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the center is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must assist in establishing the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other type 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 expense of drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some kind of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab centers. Individuals could possibly have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment program which is in their network of providers and there might be other limitations such as the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a good facility they like and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of certain drug abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities along with partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There may be some limitations regarding how much time a stay in inpatient drug treatment is allowed, and all of these questions can be answered prior to starting rehab so that it's clear how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation facility of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility offered by many different alcohol and drug rehab programs to help help clients pay for rehabilitation where this might not have been possible initially. For example, one client's fee for rehab could be different and lower than someone else whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay for the full cost of rehabilitation. Registrars consider additional circumstances besides income including number of dependents to determine the final cost using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many alcohol and drug rehab centers offer payment assistance to help clients who might possibly not have sufficient resources to self pay for rehabilitation or whose medical insurance won't provide coverage or total coverage for his or her stay. For example, Occasionally insurance only pays for a short-term facility when in actuality a long-term center will be the more suitable option. To see what payment assistance can be available, like a sliding fee scale, talk with the facility for particulars.
