Drug Treatment Help Request

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to level of care, because the individual can maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to stay in a rehab center while undergoing rehab services. While this might appear perfect it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many individuals in treatment have to have to have a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Individuals with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders are what are recognized in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must address both disorders whilst in treatment in order to find resolution because one usually triggers the other. Fortunately, there are many drug and alcohol treatment programs who are able to specifically address the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face to be able to not just become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never consider it wise to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol treatment centers have the staff or resources to cater to the requirements of Spanish speaking clientele, but fortunately there are more and more programs that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Counselling, study data and the like are now frequently accessible in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is available too nationwide.

Self Payment

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

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not an option. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only in the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug rehabilitation service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation centers. Individuals might have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program that's in their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose a quality facility they like and meet with a rehabilitation specialist 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 expenses of certain drug abuse treatment services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some restrictions regarding how much time a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions will be answered before you start rehab so that it is clear just how long and individual can remain in the rehabilitation center of preference.
