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.
  • Ecstasy is synthetically produced using chemicals and other substances such as caffeine, the active ingredient in over-the-counter cough syrup, amphetamines, PCP and even cocaine is sometimes added to or substituted for the amphetamines typically used to produce Ecstasy. The dose of MDMA in one tablet can vary from 12 mg all the way up to 131 mg, so the effects too can vary considerably.
  • Chronic use of crack cocaine can exacerbate violent behavior among those with previously violent tendencies and it can also create aggressive behavior in some users who aren't prone to this behavior.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in a variety of settings and with different rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the various demands of clients with any sort of and level of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being included in many insurance companies, you don't have to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who desires it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of level of care, as the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to be in a treatment facility while undergoing treatment services. Although this might seem ideal it might not provide the required change of environment than many people in recovery need to have a productive rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the challenges that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem is often hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL along with other assistance services readily available for them when drug abuse rehab is required. Aside from ASL, such services may include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are receiving the support they need in drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of treatment or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, rehabilitation centers will often offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment inside a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals may choose to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality treatment program which will get better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they can talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only within the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some form of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehab centers. Individuals may have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab facility that's within their network of providers and there might be other limitations including how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a quality facility they like and meet with a treatment counselor to find out if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs in addition to partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some restrictions about just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you begin rehab so that it's clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation program of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility available from a number of drug rehabilitation facilities in an effort to help clients afford rehab where this might not have been possible originally. For instance, one client's fee for rehabilitation might be different and lower than another individual whose financial situation is better which makes them more prepared to pay the full price of treatment. Registrars take into account variables besides income including number of dependents to ascertain the final cost and using the sliding scale.
