Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services regarding level of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation facility while receiving treatment services. Even though this may appear perfect it will not provide the required change of atmosphere than a lot of people in rehab need to experience a productive rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use problems are what are known in the field of alcohol and drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must tackle both disorders while in treatment to find resolution because one often exacerbates the other. Fortunately, there are numerous drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs who can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders face so that they can not only become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never consider it wise to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation due to a court order to meet part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug treatment often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when cooperating with drug and alcohol treatment requirements enforced with them in sentencing and particularly of course when successfully completing an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurers that so many people face. In addition, treatment facilities will frequently provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain treatment centers accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals might want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they're able to to fund a more quality treatment facility which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment facility.
