Facts

  • Some of the common street names for heroin are smack, thunder, hell dust, big H, nose drops, H, ska, junk, and skag.
  • The abuse of prescription drugs such as OxyContin is responsible for a great deal of health care fraud, such as corrupt physicians writing prescriptions for OxyContin for nonexistent injuries. The patient in this circumstance will often use a portion of the prescribed pills and then sell the rest for a substantial profit.
  • Even milder forms of alcohol withdrawal include serious symptoms such as the shakes, seizures, and hallucinations, typically occurring within 6-48 hours after the last drink.
  • There were 140,000 past year initiates of heroin among individuals aged 12 or older in 2010 in the U.S., showing no significant change from 2002 & 2009 estimates.

Military Insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE) - Kings Park

There are a lot of ways to get part or all of your drug rehabilitation paid for. For those who have military insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE) you will need to contact your provider directly to see exactly what you are eligible for. While both parts of TriCare (TriCare Standard and TriCare Extra) cover drug rehabilitation, only some VA benefits cover the expense of substance abuse rehabilitation. 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 substance abuse treatment you can begin researching drug rehabilitation facilities. 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.
