Treatment Approaches in Indiana

12 Step

In Indiana, 61.6 percent of drug rehab facilities offer 12-step facilitation, meaning that they assist in connecting patients with 12-step programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous. First founded almost 90 years ago, AA was the first of what is now several such programs that use 12 steps, or principles, to structure recovery for addicts. Based on the implementation of these principles and the use of regular member meetings, 12-step programs build a strong and supportive community and disciplined approach that has been proven to assist in long-term recovery. A National Institute on Alcohol Abuse study found that 12-step participants had an abstinence rate of 49 percent after 8 years, compared to an abstinence rate of 46 percent for those who partook in formal addiction treatment.

Dual Diagnosis/Co-Occurring

Individuals who suffer from a mental illness are more likely to also suffer from a substance use disorder, according to a SAMHSA report. The dual diagnosis of a mental illness and substance use disorder affects many millions of Americans every year. In 2019, it was 9.5 million, according to a SAMHSA study, and had increased by 300,000 over the past year. These patients have complex needs and require specialized treatment. In Indiana, 39.4 percent of facilities provide these services.

Detox

Often, patients who are struggling with addiction begin their recovery by going through detox: The process of allowing addictive substances to leave their bodies in a safe and medically-supervised environment. Detox facilities in Indiana are most common in outpatient programs, although detox facilities also exist in residential and hospital-based contexts.

Short-Term Inpatient Rehab

Inpatient rehabs are programs that allow patients to live at the rehab facility and receive treatment and support 24/7. Programs like this that treat patients for less than 30 days are referred to as short-term inpatient rehab. 5.3 percent of Indiana facilities offer this type of rehab.

Long-Term Residential Rehab

Long-term residential rehab refers to programs that offer inpatient services for longer than 30 days. Often beneficial for patients who suffer from severe addiction, these programs are available in 8.9 percent of Indiana's rehab facilities.

Rehab Costs In Indiana

There is no one single price for rehab in Indiana. Instead, the exact cost of a patient's recovery will depend upon a number of factors, including

• Rehab program
• Therapy
• Aftercare
• Treatment approaches
• Insurance coverage
• And more

Patients will need to talk with their preferred rehab facility to determine exactly how much they will need to pay for their rehab services. However, Indiana facilities also offer multiple options for paying for these rehab costs, and these programs sometimes provide free or reduced-cost services for needy patients.

Private Health Insurance for Addiction Rehab

In the United States, about 150 million people have private health insurance, which is often available through employers. These individuals can usually receive drug rehab that is covered by their insurance policies. The exact amount that patients with private insurance can expect to pay will depend upon the services they receive, the rehab program they attend, and the details of their insurance policy. In order to determine their exact coverage, patients should call their preferred rehab program and their insurance company before entering addiction treatment. Most Indiana facilities (82.2 percent) accept some form of private health insurance.

Medicaid and Medicare for Addiction Rehab

About 34 percent of the 300 million people in the United States who have health insurance receive it through Medicaid or Medicare. These federal programs provide healthcare to people who meet certain low income thresholds, and typically cover drug rehab in full. In Indiana, 76.1 percent of facilities accept Medicaid, while 56.5 percent of facilities accept Medicare.

Uninsured Addiction Rehab

As of 2021, 31.1 million people in the United States did not have health insurance, which can make it difficult for those who need drug rehab to pay for it. However, many of Indiana's programs make treatment available to uninsured and financially need individuals through the following options:

Sliding Scale Payments

Almost two-thirds of Indiana's drug rehab programs offer their services on a sliding scale, which means that the program reduces its costs based upon a patient's income. The lower their income, the less they have to pay for treatment. This practice can put a center's services within reach, even when a patient cannot afford to pay the full costs of their treatment.

Free drug rehab

Only 1 facility in Indiana offers its services for free to all patients. However, almost one-third (32.6 percent) of the state's facilities offer treatment at no charge or minimal charge for patients who cannot afford to pay for their treatment.

Patients seeking affordable treatment for their substance use disorder may want to speak with an addiction counselor at any of Indiana's drug rehab programs. These counselors can help evaluate patients and direct them toward the services and payment options that will work best for their circumstances.

Indiana Drug Treatment Overview

As with any state, Indiana's drug treatment options provide both pros and cons for patients seeking recovery. Here are some of the most important:

Pros

At 12.2 percent, the percentage of Indiana facilities that offer outpatient drug detox services is relatively high, making this first step in recovery easier for patients to access.

62.8 percent of facilities in Indiana accept state-financed health insurance plans, further broadening the payment options available to patients within the state.

More than half (56 percent) of facilities accept federal military insurance, making drug treatment accessible to those who serve the United States in the military and their families.

Cons

Despite a high rate of acceptance of federal military insurance, only 6.6 percent of Indiana's drug rehab centers have services tailored to active duty military members, and only 7.1 percent have services tailored to their family members. These low rates may make it more difficult for military members and their families to find treatment that takes their unique needs into account.

Only 49.6 percent of facilities offer follow-up to determine the outcome patients experienced after their treatment.
