Drug Treatment Center Rehab Programs
- You need to ask appropriate questions when you call a Drug Rehab for information and you should expect to receive clear answers.
- Before you make any decisions-ask questions and get the facts!
-
How much does a drug rehab cost?
- "How much does it cost?" is often one of the first questions asked.
- The price tag for drug abuse & alcoholism is presented in many different formats. You need to know what is included in the price, what will be added on to your bill as a fee-for-service program, and what services your health insurance will cover. This makes it extremely difficult to compare prices by simply asking the question - "What does it cost?"
- If you are seeking the best value for your treatment dollar, remember: Price can be meaningful only in the context of quality and performance.
Is the drug rehab medically based?
- There is an advantage to including on-site medical care in a Drug Rehab. Physicians and nurses provide 24-hour hospital services to monitor and ensure a safe withdrawal from alcohol and other drugs. In addition, a medical staff specializing in addiction medicine can oversee the progress of each individual and make necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.
- Medical credentials can also be important. For example, a chemical dependency Drug rehab that earn a JCAHO accreditation (Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations) meet national standards for providing quality medical care. Appropriate state licensing is also an important consideration.
- Be sure to ask which medical costs are included in the price of treatment.
-
Is family involved in the program?
- Drug abuse and alcoholism affects the entire family, not just the alcoholic/addict. Quite often family members do not realize how deeply they have been affected by chemical dependency. Family involvement is an important component of recovery.
- Drug Rehabs vary in the degree and quality of family involvement opportunities. Some offer just a few lectures and others offer family therapy. Ask if there is any time devoted to family programs and if group therapy is included.
