Inpatient Rehab: 

Also known as residential treatment, usually involves the patient staying in a substance free facility and receiving around the clock medical care with being enrolled in a long term treatment.  Inpatient treatment programs are an excellent option for individuals struggling with long-term substance use disorders and those struggling with behavioral illnesses. 

Outpatient Rehab:

Outpatient treatment programs are another form of comprehensive substance use disorder care. These programs offer many of the same effective treatments and therapies as inpatient programs. However, outpatient treatment allows patients to live at home during recovery. Depending on their condition, patients can sometimes continuing living life normally, including working and caring for their families while attending weekly scheduled treatment sessions.

It’s important to remember that outpatient programs do not sequester patients from the real world; therefore, patients are at greater risk of encountering triggers that can result in relapse behaviors, especially in early recovery. Because of this, outpatient rehabs are suited for individuals with mild forms of substance use disorders and a committed, disciplined approach to recovery. Outpatient programs are also an excellent “step-down” approach after inpatient treatment and are often combined with sober living homes.

Detoxification:

Supervised medical detoxification helps people safely go through the withdrawal process from substances until they are no longer present in their system. It is often the first step in treating individuals recovering from moderate to severe substance use disorders and addiction. In some cases, detoxing from certain substances require medical assisted therapy (MAT). To help ease the severity of withdrawal symptoms and prevent life-threatening medical conditions. Medications prescribed during detox are often tapered until the patient is no longer physically dependent on addictive substances. 

Sober Living:

Also known as half way houses. Sober living homes operate as a residential bridge between an inpatient treatment center and the return to everyday life. These are great options for people in recovery who need additional time to reinforce what they learned in treatment. Sober living homes help people in recovery strengthen their new healthy habits while still residing in the comfort of a structured environment with others who are also seeking recovery. 

Addiction Treatment Medication Options

Patients may be prescribed medications during detox and treatment to help with their recovery. These medications are utilized for various purposes, including managing acute withdrawal symptoms, reducing cravings, or treating co-occurring disorders such as depression or anxiety. Medications for addiction treatment have the most effective results when combined with a comprehensive treatment program. 

Costs of rehab will vary depending on the treatment needed. Residential programs offer the highest level of care, often including medical detox services with 24-hour medical care by specialized medical professionals. These services are usually the most recommended level of care and often the most expensive as a result. 

Outpatient treatment programs, such as partial hospitalization programs (PHP) and intensive outpatient programming (IO), will often cost less than traditional residential treatment, but may not provide enough support for sustained recovery for those in active addiction or who require more accountability in early recovery.

Treatment comes in many forms, and there are various strategies to take when it comes to covering the costs. When it comes to finding ways to secure payment for treatment services, many people turn to their health insurance for help. 

Most private insurance plans will cover at least a portion of substance abuse treatment, while some cover it entirely. To learn about an insurance carrier’s benefit coverage for residential treatment, call them or visit their website to find out what’s covered.

Many treatment centers will assist with this task to help alleviate barriers that potential patients or caregivers may experience along the way. They can find out if the treatment center is in network and how many days and what services are covered under your specific plan. It’s important to note that all information given at this stage is not final, as there are many moving parts to the admissions process. Once the full admissions process has been completed, a more detailed plan can be created that will better describe how long treatment may be covered by an insurance plan.

In the United States, United Healthcare, Cigna, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and Aetna are the four major health insurance companies that cover addiction treatment. Read more about these major insurance providers and the addiction treatment services they cover below.
