Missouri Long-Term Rehab

It is the professional opinion of DRS that long-term residential treatment or any form of long-term care produces the best results. Here are some reasons why:

• Extended care options and continuous support. Long-term treatment programs in Missouri provide months of care and treatment. In addition, patients are connected to suitable aftercare support.
• Attending to multiple needs. A significant benefit of any long-term treatment center is the ability to attend to various needs, not just your substance use. For example, this may include social, legal, vocational, nutritional, and physical health problems.
• You are removed from a potentially dangerous environment. Long-term treatment programs are primarily residential. This means you have an opportunity to get away from the environment you were once in and be in a supportive environment.
• Provides more than one therapy option. No one form of drug rehabilitation is suitable for every person. Generally, long-term residential programs tailor treatment to individual needs—for example, behavioral therapies, 12-step therapy, holistic therapy, or spiritual therapy.
• Around-the-clock medical support. In Missouri, long-term treatment centers, especially residential programs, typically provide 24/7 medical support. Anyone struggling with difficult withdrawal symptoms or a physical ailment benefits from this level of care.

Overall, there are numerous treatment centers in Missouri to consider. Drug rehab programs in Missouri include services for every demographic. In addition, payment options and health insurance make it easier to access services, regardless of your financial situation.

GUIDE TO FINDING TREATMENT

Paying for Drug Rehab in Missouri

Missouri is a state that’s no stranger to addiction. And much like the rest of the US, there are several options for treating substance use. The cost of treatment in Missouri may depend on several factors, but one of the most important is if the patient has any health insurance to help pay for treatment.

Paying for Treatment with Medicaid in Missouri

Missouri offers Medicaid coverage as all states do through the federal Medicaid program. In 2021, Missouri opted into the Medicaid expansion program and began aiding those who don’t qualify for standard Medicaid. With traditional Medicaid, coverage is free and usually pays for all necessary services. But often, people who don’t qualify for Medicaid cannot afford the inflated costs of private health insurance and so have no assistance paying for treatment.

Using Private Insurance to Pay for Drug Rehab in Missouri

For those who can afford private insurance, it may be easier to find help quickly. But privately-funded programs usually don’t accept Medicaid, making private insurance coverage and cash payment the only options. The benefit of these programs is that they usually provide higher-quality care and do not have waiting lists.

Expanded Medicaid is offered at the state level and is a program to help people pay for private insurance premiums based on their income level. This helps those residents who fall within the uninsured gap between Medicaid and being able to afford private health insurance. As of 2021, more than 1 million state residents were enrolled in one of Missouri’s Medicaid programs.

The following insurers are available through the Missouri Health Insurance Marketplace 2023 Guide:

• Aetna
• Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas City
• Celtic
• Cigna
• Cox Health systems
• Anthem/Healthy Alliance Life Insurance Company
• Medica
• Oscar
• SSM Health Insurance Company
• UnitedHealthcare

Paying for Treatment when Uninsured

Despite the available assistance in Missouri, many people still end up uninsured. When someone needs addiction treatment, there’s no time to waste trying to enroll in insurance that will cover the cost. Often, it takes weeks to enroll in Medicaid, and private insurers only offer new coverage during periods known as “open enrollment.” This stops people from picking up a policy to cover one service, like rehab, and then dropping it.

Thankfully, many treatment programs in Missouri understand this issue and offer assistance for those without insurance. For example, many programs in the state offer sliding-scale payment options. This type of assistance considers the person’s income and offers correlate discounts. You can contact one of the treatment specialists at DRS for more information on how to pay for treatment. Or contact the center directly.

DRS’ Evaluation of Drug Rehab in Missouri

A frustrating barrier that many families in Missouri encounter when looking for substance use treatment, is the availability of beds. Unfortunately, demand for treatment often exceeds the spots available. Our experts recommend contacting multiple programs and even placing your name on a waiting list if needed. It is crucial to keep multiple options open.

On a positive note, most substance use treatment centers in the state offer a sliding fee scale for low-income clients. In addition, a good percentage of the facilities provide their services at no charge or minimal payment for clients who cannot pay. However, there is generally a particular criterion to meet.

Overall, there is a good selection of detox, outpatient, and residential care. We recommend receiving an addiction assessment from a qualified professional to determine the best option.
