Facts

  • Sudden heroin withdrawal by heavily dependent users who are in poor health can result in death under certain conditions.
  • Most opiate addicted individuals are no longer capable of holding down a job which often leads to loss of health insurance coverage. Diseases and conditions that develop as a result of opiate addiction are therefore often paid for through public funds because these individuals cannot pay for their own treatment.
  • The National Institute on Drug Abuse and Drug Enforcement Administration reports that about 1 in 20 high school seniors admit to having taken OxyContin without a prescription.
  • Short-term residential drug rehab is a type of drug treatment which provides intensive but relatively brief treatment based on a modified 12-step approach.

Medicare - St. John, Indiana

Drug addiction affects every race, age and gender. For drug addicted people 65 years or older, Medicare is an option to pay for some if not all of their drug treatment. Medicare insurance may cover the treatment of alcoholism and drug abuse in both outpatient and inpatient settings, as long as a few key points are addressed. The addict must receive services from a Medicare-participating facility or provider. The drug addicted person's doctor states 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 maximum of 190 days in a psychiatric hospital for the individual's entire lifetime.
