Facts

  • Many doctors in the U.S. choose to use methadone for treating chronic pain in patients even though some of these patients are thought to have a propensity for addiction.
  • Methamphetamine causes a release of high levels of dopamine into the areas of the brain that have to do with the feeling of pleasure and reward, which is why the drug is so addictive.
  • Most of the States in the nation which have the lowest rates of use of illicit drugs use among persons aged 12 or older are either from the South (five States) or the Midwest (three States).
  • It is not uncommon for chronic methamphetamine users to experience psychotic behavior including intense paranoia, hallucinations, and out-of-control rage that can result in violent episodes.

Forest Park, Georgia - Medicare

Substance abuse and addiction affects every race, age and gender. For substance abusers that are 65 years or older, Medicare may be an option to pay for some if not all of their drug rehabilitation. Medicare insurance may pay for the treatment of drug addiction or alcoholism in both outpatient and inpatient settings, as long as a few key points are addressed. The addict must receive treatment from a Medicare-participating facility or provider. The patient's doctor notes that the drug or alcohol treatment is medically necessary and that the patient's doctor provides a specific recommended treatment plan. Additionally, Medicare will only cover a total of 190 days in a psychiatric hospital for the individual's entire lifetime.
