Facts

  • The most beneficial treatment for alcohol addiction in older adults may be education, as many seniors lack information about the dangers of excessive alcohol use.
  • Long-term use of OxyContin often results in tolerance to the drug, causing the user to take higher doses to achieve the same initial effects. This can happen through both legitimate and illicit use of the drug.
  • Persistent withdrawal signs have been observed in chronic drug users, even after acute withdrawal symptoms have passed. These symptoms can occur for many months.
  • Methadone has an extremely high risk of physical dependence, and when not taken daily users will experience very painful withdrawal symptoms.

Military Insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE) - Pescadero, California

There are a lot of ways to get part or all of your drug treatment covered. For those who have military insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE) you will need to contact your provider directly to see what you are eligible for. While both parts of TriCare (TriCare Standard and TriCare Extra) cover drug treatment, only some VA benefits cover the expense of substance abuse recovery. Once you have spoken with your military insurance provider (e.g., VA, TRICARE) and have a full understanding of what they will pay for regarding addiction treatment you can begin researching drug rehabilitation centers. Be sure to speak to the billing department to ensure that they accept your military insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE). You will want to have a full understanding of what your part (if any) of the program costs you will be responsible for before you enroll into the treatment program.
