Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to intensity of care, as the individual can preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehab center while receiving treatment services. Although this may appear ideal it will not provide the required change of surroundings than lots of people in rehab have to have to have a productive rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug abuse as a result of challenges their impairment impose on them. While detection of the issue is often difficult among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL along with other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse treatment is required. Other than ASL, such services can include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are obtaining the help they need in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only cover part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a great deal of leverage simply because they can select whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many individuals face. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehab programs accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present any other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehab inside a limited amount of programs, and in cases like this individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to pay for a more quality rehab program which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek treatment at drug and alcohol rehab programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation when the center is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help in setting up the individual's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment 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 and alcohol treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If a person does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might be eligible for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office in their area to figure out if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only in the state which offers the insurance plan.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance possibility made available from numerous alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in order to help individuals pay for rehab where this may not have been possible originally. For instance, one client's price for rehabilitation might be different and lower than another person whose finances are better which makes them more prepared to spend the money for full price of treatment. Registrars take into account variables aside from income including amount of dependents to determine the final cost and using the sliding scale.
