Humana Cocaine Treatment Coverage
Cocaine is a highly addictive stimulant producing a euphoric, energetic high that can be difficult to quit. Repeated use can lead to addiction and tolerance, which means additional quantities of cocaine will be necessary to achieve the same “high” as before. Even if you or a loved one want to quit cocaine, it can be difficult to do so without the support of an addiction treatment center. Humana rehab and cocaine treatment coverage can make rehab treatment centers more affordable and accessible.
How Does Humana Cocaine Treatment Coverage Work?
In 2011, 4,600 people died from cocaine overdose; males are nearly three times as likely to overdose as females. Cocaine can be especially deadly when used in conjunction with heroin (known as a “speedball”) or alcohol. This combination can lead to cardiac arrest, which means the heart stops beating. Abusing cocaine in conjunction with other drugs increases the risk for cardiac arrest and other health problems, including sudden death. An in-patient treatment program can help you or a loved one take the first steps to sobriety after cocaine abuse and addiction. These programs may provide medically supervised detox, one-on-one therapy, group therapy, behavioral counseling and out-patient or continuing care programs to help make the transition out of in-patient rehab easier.
If you or a loved one is abusing cocaine, Humana cocaine treatment coverage may help make your treatments more affordable. Coverage depends on the type of insurance you have. For example, you may also need to pay a co-pay, co-insurance or deductible. In some cases, a medical referral may be necessary before entering treatment. Coverage may also vary depending on whether the program is an in-patient or outpatient treatment center and the duration of the program length. Traditionally, most programs include a 12-step treatment and are 28 days in length. However, depending your needs or the needs of your loved one, a longer program of 60 days or 90 days may be more beneficial. It is important to select the right treatment that matches your needs.
