More Information

How long does rehab treatment take?

The average inpatient treatment program lasts between 30 and 90 days but outpatient and aftercare services may be longer.

How do I pay for rehab treatment?

Rehab facilities accept a wide range of payment options including health insurance, self-funding, grants & scholarships, and Medicaid/Medicare.

How do I choose the right rehab in Kentucky?

Speaking to a physician or healthcare expert can help you identify the severity of your substance use disorder and a suitable treatment option. You can then search our directory for a center that best meets your needs.

Can I get mental health treatment during rehab?

Yes, many rehab facilities offer treatment for co-occurring substance use disorder and mental health conditions. The provider will discuss your medical history with you before being admitted to assess if you require dual diagnosis treatment.

What treatment medications are used during rehab?

Substance use disorders may require different medication-assisted treatments depending on the substance being abused and the severity of the addiction. For opioid use disorders, suboxone, buprenorphine, and methadone are often used during detox and aftercare, while those with an alcohol addiction may receive Antabuse.

Can rehabs in Kentucky give out my information?

No, The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is a federal law that prevents a patient's private health information from being shared with another party without their consent including patients attending rehab treatment.

What is a rehab like?

All rehab facilities operate differently and treatment settings can alternate what a day-to-day schedule will look like. Read here to find out more about a typical day in rehab.

Does my health insurance cover rehab?

Yes, almost all health insurance providers will cover the cost of substance use disorder and addiction treatment under their plans, as well as other mental health conditions.

How much does rehab cost in Kentucky?

Rehab treatment costs can vary greatly; with outpatient detox programs costing around $1,200 and residential inpatient services costing over $10,000. Rehab costs can almost always be covered partially or wholly by health insurance and many centers accept other payment options depending on your circumstances.

When should I seek help for addiction?

There are many indicators that you or a loved one may have a substance problem. Read our guide on the warning signs of addiction for more information or take our self-assessment.

How do I get a loved one to go to rehab?

While it’s good to share your concern for the person's well-being and health, it’s important to understand that they may not be ready or willing to get help. Most of the time, going to rehab needs to be a voluntary choice (unless court-ordered) so you cannot force a loved one into rehab.

What should I bring with me to rehab?

Each rehab center has its own set of rules and policies about contraband items, so check with the facility before you pack your things. There are also some items you may need to bring with you for admission, including a photo ID and a copy of your health insurance card, as well as clothing for several days and hygiene products.

Do I need to go to rehab for detox or can I do it alone?

If you experience signs of withdrawal when you miss a dose or stop abusing a substance, it is important to seek help at an inpatient medical detox center. Certain substances such as alcohol or benzodiazepines also pose additional health risks when use stops and medical supervision is needed to avoid serious complications.

Will I lose my job if I go to rehab?

No, The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) protects individuals who are attending rehab from discrimination in the workplace, meaning you cannot be fired for seeking substance use disorder treatment.

Can I go to rehab if I’m pregnant?

Yes, many rehab facilities specialize in treating expecting mothers; ensuring both mother’s and baby's health are taken care of alongside treatment for substance use disorders.

Are cellphones allowed in rehab?

While you can bring your phone with you to rehab, almost all residential facilities will ask you to hand it over along with other valuables during the admission process.

Can I still work while in rehab?

While going to rehab won’t affect your employment status, almost all facilities do not allow remote working during treatment. This is to ensure patients are free from outside distractions and can focus on healing.

Can I visit someone in rehab?

Yes, though all rehabs will have their own visitation policy and most won’t allow outside visits within the first 14-30 days.

Paying for Addiction Treatment

Addiction treatment costs vary greatly depending on if it's a luxury rehab center, whether it’s an inpatient or outpatient treatment program, the type of treatment required, and whether the program accepts insurance or is self-pay only. There is a wide range of different options for addiction treatment, and most people can find an option that fits within their budget. While treatment for an addiction can be costly, it is also an important investment in your health, your life, and your future, and one that will likely pay you back for years to come. Most addiction rehabs accept three types of payment options; insurance, financial aid, or financing.

Medications Used to Treat Addiction

Detoxification can be a challenging process, as withdrawal symptoms can be very uncomfortable, and for some substances, withdrawal may even be life-threatening. Doctors in inpatient and outpatient rehab often utilize medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to ease the process of withdrawal, reduce cravings, and support early substance use recovery efforts.

Drug and Alcohol Detox

Often referred to as 'the cleanse', detoxing from drugs and alcohol can be dangerous, causing both physical and psychological stress and discomfort. Depending on the substance you are detoxing from and how much and how often you used it, you may benefit from a medically supervised detox. Most times, this is provided in an inpatient treatment facility and the aim is to help keep you comfortable while the drug leaves your system.

Inpatient And Residential Rehab

Inpatient rehabilitation treatment involves a range of interventions and activities to help people manage substance abuse issues, including addictions to alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, and amphetamines. Inpatient treatment can provide a safe and drug-free environment for people who require 24-hour care when withdrawing or recovering from substance addiction.

Outpatient Substance Use Disorder Treatment

Outpatient rehabilitation treatment can help people with substance use disorders who require support but do not need intensive care for severe symptoms and require the flexibility offered by an outpatient program. Outpatient programs can be of varying intensities, depending on the needs of the individual, and also vary in cost.

Alcohol, Substance Abuse, and Co-Occurring Disorders

Over half of people who suffer from a mental illness disorder or a substance abuse problem will have the other at some point in their lives.

Helping a Family Member or Friend

If someone you know and care about, be they a friend, coworker, or family member is suffering from an alcohol or drug abuse problem it can be hard to know what to do or how you can help. Not only can their behavior have a negative impact on your life as well as theirs, but it may also be difficult to confront them about their problem. Ultimately, whether someone decides to get help with an alcohol or drug abuse problem is up to them but being able to support and talk to someone about their problem may give them the incentive they need to seek help. Still, confronting them the wrong way can make them defensive and less likely to listen or be receptive to what you have to say.This article will provide some tips on what to do and say (and what to avoid doing or saying) to someone who is struggling with an addiction.

Support Groups

In addition to rehab, detox, professional therapy, and prescription medication, people with addictions frequently turn to each other, seeking emotional support, accountability, techniques for managing urges, and sober communities. Mutual aid fellowships, such as the 12-step programs pioneered by Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and secular alternatives, offer free, community-based, confidential meetings to help people reach recovery and stay on the right path.

Addiction and Mental Health

Substance abuse disorders and mental health conditions frequently co-exist, as people turn to addictive substances to self-medicate, and those substances cause and aggravate existing mental health symptoms. Substance abuse and mental health disorders may also share the same underlying causes, including genetics and early trauma.

Therapy For Addiction

Typical psychosocial therapies that are used for addiction include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and contingency management (CM). These may be augmented by other types of therapy, including pharmacological therapy and holistic therapies.

Relapse Prevention

Relapse is one of the most difficult parts of recovery to manage and is often a constant battle for those who are overcoming addiction. While avoiding relapse will often be a lifelong challenge, it does not need to be an ordeal and there are many ways to avoid substance misuse.

Sober Living Homes

Quitting alcohol and drug abuse can be a challenging, arduous process. If you or a loved one has completed their stay at an addiction treatment center and detoxed effectively, it’s time to take the next step towards sustaining sobriety. Losing the accountability that the structure of a treatment program provides, you may worry that your recovery could be impeded. A sober living home may make the transition back to normal life easier.
