Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in many different settings with different rehab lengths and plans to suit the varying demands of clients with any sort of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being covered by many insurance companies, there is no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of level of care, because the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this may seem ideal it will not provide the much needed change of environment than many people in rehabilitation have to have to have a productive rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the possibility or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. In many cases, the offender can choose which rehabilitation facility they wish to go to. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from reduced sentencing options in order to progress in their lives without having to be penalized any further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but people really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many individuals face. Likewise, treatment programs will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehab centers accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present some other form of private medical health insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehab center that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehab at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient rehab when the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must aid in setting up the individual's rehab plan. Inpatient services are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being just like any other type of hospital stay, and outpatient rehab being covered through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the expense of alcohol and drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they can consult their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehab, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehab service ranging from outpatient rehabilitation to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehab centers. Individuals could possibly have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab center that is in their network of providers and there could be other restrictions such as just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they prefer and consult with a treatment specialist to ascertain if their insurance will cover it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular substance abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs along with partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There may be some limitations concerning the length of time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol rehab is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehabilitation program of preference.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale can be a payment assistance option available from a variety of alcohol and drug rehab facilities to help help clients pay for treatment where this might not have been doable initially. For instance, one client's price for rehabilitation could be different and lower than someone else whose financial situation is better which makes them more prepared to spend the money for full price of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account additional circumstances apart from income including number of dependents to determine the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
