Counselling, study info and stuff like that are actually very often available in Spanish in both short and long terms centers which provide inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is available too nationwide.

Medicaid

Certain treatment programs will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present any other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehabilitation center which will get better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug rehab centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with setting up the person's rehabilitation plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being the same as any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being paid for through Medicare Medicare Part B.
