Expert Insights

A new mental health and addiction treatment facility–the San Joaquin Be Well Campus–is being proposed for the French Camp area of California. On the campus would be a “sobering center” (that provides short-term care so that someone who is intoxicated–and nonviolent–can safely sober up. Such provisions can eliminate the need for incarceration in cases of public intoxication.) Sobering centers have not been widely recognized as an option. Perhaps they should be.

Paying for Alcohol and Drug Rehab in Vallejo

vallejo california cityMost Vallejo drug rehabs accept multiple forms of payment, including self-pay and private or public insurance. If you’re uninsured or underinsured and need help covering the cost of your care, you may even be eligible for reduced-cost or free treatment.

Some of the discounted and free addiction options in Vallejo and the surrounding locations include:

  • Government-funded treatment centers: These facilities get funding from various government sources so they can provide low-cost and even free therapy and recovery support for economically disadvantaged individuals.
  • Sliding scale facilities: These facilities use a variable fee scale that’s based on income and will only charge you what you can afford to pay. Services may even be free, depending on the facility and your financial situation.
  • Methadone clinics: These facilities offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid-use disorders. Some are funded by public sources and will not turn anyone away due to an inability to pay.
  • Non-profits: These treatment centers are funded via grants, donations, and subsidies from public sources and private donors. Many facilities use that funding to provide affordable and free treatment for persons experiencing financial need.

If you’re interested in getting low-cost or free treatment at a drug or alcohol rehab in Vallejo, you must be able to demonstrate financial need to qualify. A few local treatment and recovery centers that may be able to help you with payment assistance include:6

  • Genesis House Inc.
  • Bi-Bett Corporation
  • Ujima Family Recovery Services (located roughly 9 miles from Vallejo)

Financing Addiction Treatment With Private Insurance

If you currently have a private health plan, it may pay for inpatient or outpatient treatment at various drug and alcohol rehabs in Vallejo. Under the Affordable Care Act, most private insurers are required by law to offer plans that provide some degree of coverage for addiction treatment services.7 A handful of local treatment centers accept private insurance from various major providers, including Kaiser, Aetna, Beacon Health, Blue Shield of California, and others.

Keep in mind that your plan may include coverage limits and stipulations on the types of therapies and length of treatment it will pay for. And if your plan has a provider network, you’ll need to select a facility within that network to maximize your coverage.

Paying for Drug Rehab With Medicaid or Medicare

Both California Medicaid (Medi-Cal) and Medicare provide coverage for several medically necessary inpatient and outpatient addiction treatment services.8, 9 If you have one of these public health plans, you can use it to pay for treatment at approved Vallejo drug and alcohol rehabs.

Within 10 miles of the city, you’ll find four rehab centers that take Medicare and five that accept Medi-Cal.6 At these facilities, your plan may partially or fully cover the cost of your care, depending on the type and length of treatment you need.

If you don’t have health insurance, you can sign up for Medi-Cal if your annual income falls at or below 138% of the federal poverty level for your household size.10 You can sign up for Medicare beginning three months before your 65th birthday and during the four months thereafter. You can also sign up during the plan’s general and annual enrollment periods if you miss your initial enrollment window. If you’re under 65 and have a disability, you may qualify to enroll in Medicare, too.11

Levels of Substance Abuse Care

Multiple levels of care exist for addiction treatment. Some California residents require all levels of care during their journey to recovery, while others receive only the less intensive options.

Medical Detox: Detox is the process of removing drugs or alcohol from your system, safely and comfortably, in a supervised medical setting. Many people choose a medical detox program to prevent severe withdrawal symptoms. This is often the first step in the treatment process, completed before transitioning into formal treatment services.

Inpatient Drug and Alcohol Rehab: Inpatient or residential treatment involves living at a facility to receive 24/7 care. A combination of treatment interventions is provided, including individual and group therapy, nutritional counseling, and medication.

Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs): PHPs allow California residents to live at home while attending treatment at a hospital. They often receive many of the same treatments as inpatient care but can return home during non-treatment hours.

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs): A step down from a PHP, IOPs allow California residents to attend counseling several days each week while spending the rest of their time at home, working, or fulfilling other obligations.

Standard Outpatient: As the least intensive treatment option, standard outpatient care is appropriate for California residents who are highly motivated and have a strong support system. It involves just one or two hours of treatment per week.

Relapse Prevention: Aftercare, or relapse prevention, provides ongoing support after a rehab program is complete. Aftercare may include 12-step groups, non-12-step groups like SMART Recovery, ongoing therapy, sober living homes, and more.

California Alcohol and Drug Laws

California laws include the following policies regarding substance abuse:1,2,3,4,5

California Employee Protections for Drug or Alcohol Rehab: California’s labor code requires employers with 25 or more employees to provide accommodation to staff who voluntarily choose to attend alcohol or drug rehab. This may include unpaid time off or use of sick or vacation time. Employees who wish to request time off for addiction treatment may be able to request it under the Family and Medical Leave Act or the California Family Rights Act.

Substance Abuse and Crime Prevention Act: This act provides treatment opportunities for individuals who are convicted of non-violent crimes. Eligible offenders may serve their time in drug treatment rather than in prison.

California Government Prevention and Care Services: Senate Bill 110 expanded these services to include contingency management (an incentivized treatment program) as a benefit covered under Medi-Cal. Patients who demonstrate substance-free behavior, such as drug-free urine tests, are rewarded with vouchers or gift cards.

California Ethical Treatment for Persons with Substance Use Disorder Act: This protects drug addiction treatment clients by requiring treatment providers to adopt a client bill of rights, to ensure all individuals receiving addiction care are treated with dignity, honesty, and respect.

California’s Good Samaritan Law: This law encourages California residents to call 9-1-1 if an overdose is suspected. It protects individuals who seek emergency medical care for overdose from legal repercussions for possession of a controlled substance/drug paraphernalia or providing alcohol to minors.
