Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anybody who must be safely managed through detox services when intensely addicted to alcohol and drugs, or who needs a broader spectrum of care such as someone who is dealing with a dual diagnosis and also requires mental health services as part of their rehabilitation process. You'll find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services offered.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services regarding level of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to be in a rehab facility while receiving rehab services. Even if this may seem perfect it may not provide the required change of environment than lots of people in recovery have to have to experience a productive rehabilitation.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse due to the challenges their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the issue is often difficult among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL along with other assistance services available for them when drug abuse treatment is needed. Other than ASL, such services can include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are getting the help they need in drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance won't cover the total cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage because they can select whichever center they would like without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people face. Likewise, rehab programs will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehab facilities will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation inside a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with 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 rehab facility.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in setting up the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some type of drug and alcohol treatment service including outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug rehab facilities. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab facility that is in their network of providers and there might be other limitations like how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a quality program they like and consult with a rehab counselor to determine if their insurance covers it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expense of certain substance abuse treatment solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are all covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There might be some restrictions about how long a stay in inpatient drug rehab is allowed, and every one of these questions will be answered before you start rehab so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the treatment center of preference.
