Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At rehab centers which do accept Medicaid, clients won't have co-payments in most states. For states which do charge co-pays, there are limits to the out-of-pocket expenses for recipients. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If someone in Port Alexander wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must satisfy the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
