Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in a variety of settings along with various rehabilitation lengths and plans to accommodate the various needs of clients with any type of and amount of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential programs now being paid by many insurance plans, you shouldn't have to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of treatment services with regards to level of care, as the individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to be in a rehab center while receiving rehab services. While this might appear ideal it might not provide the much needed change of environment than many people in treatment need to have a successful rehab.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to rehabilitation as part of sentencing. In many cases, the offender can decide which rehabilitation facility they wish to go to. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of reduced sentencing options in order to move forward in their lives without having to be penalized any more.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may appear like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage simply because they can decide on whichever center they want without the restrictions from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. In addition, rehab facilities will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug rehab if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they could qualify for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but typically only in the state which offers the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug treatment centers. Individuals could have to participate in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center which is inside their network of providers and there might be other restrictions including the length of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a good program they like and consult with a rehabilitation specialist to ascertain if their insurance will take care of it.

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

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse rehab solutions. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities in addition to partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some restrictions regarding how long a stay in inpatient drug rehabilitation is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered prior to starting rehab so that it is clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehab center of preference.
