Drug Addiction Facts

  • Codeine is a short-acting pain medication, which means its effects last only a few hours per dose.
  • Using marijuana puts children and teens in contact with people who are users and sellers of other drugs, posing more of a risk that a marijuana user will be exposed to and urged to try more drugs.
  • It isn't uncommon for individuals to remain in methadone maintenance treatment for more than ten years, an estimated 20% do, and some even endure methadone maintenance for the duration of their lives.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are accessible to anybody that needs to be safely managed through detoxification services when seriously addicted to drugs and alcohol, or who needs a better spectrum of care such as someone who has a dual diagnosis and also requires mental health services as part of their rehab process. There are both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services accessible.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who have a problem with substance abuse could possibly have unique challenges they have to overcome during rehab, which treatment professionals within the center they opt to take part in should be keen of to ensure that a complete recovery is possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is wise to decide on a facility that's familiar with helping seniors and older adults tackle the unique life and substance abuse problems that these clients face which may include a broader spectrum of services including medical care and so on.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to the challenges that their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem is often difficult among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL along with other assistance services designed for them when substance abuse rehab is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services can include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the help they require in drug rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers have the staff or wherewithal to focus on the requirements of Spanish speaking clients, but thankfully there are more and more centers that are able to do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than previously. Therapy, study data and the like are actually frequently obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is also available around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but people actually have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. Likewise, treatment programs will frequently provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private medical insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may wish to explore the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehab center which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug treatment programs which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must assist in establishing the person's rehab strategy. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket 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 can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone has no private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could be eligible for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to figure out if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only inside the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health care insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug treatment service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities. Individuals might have to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program which is inside their network of providers and there can be other limitations including the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a quality program they like and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to find out if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular drug abuse rehabilitation services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to 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 might be some limitations regarding just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you start rehabilitation so that it's clear just how long and individual can stay in the rehabilitation facility of choice.
