Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities possess the staff or resources to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clientele, but fortunately there are more and more programs that will do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Counselling, study information and the like are actually frequently available in Spanish in both long and short terms centers which provide inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish treatment is also available around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage simply because they can choose whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurers that so many people face. Likewise, rehabilitation centers will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present some other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of facilities, and in this instance individuals might want to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehabilitation center which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol treatment program.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive treatment at alcohol and drug treatment programs which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with establishing the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient services are covered through Medicare Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being just like any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug rehab if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a choice. When someone doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office within their area to determine if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some kind of drug rehab service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment centers. Individuals could have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab facility which is inside their network of providers and there could be other restrictions like the length of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they like and speak with a treatment counselor to determine if their insurance will handle it.

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

Military insurance including VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular drug abuse treatment services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient centers and also partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare representative. There can be some restrictions as to just how long a stay in inpatient drug rehab is permitted, and every one of these questions will be answered before you begin rehab so that it's clear how much time and individual can remain in the rehab program of preference.
