Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At facilities 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 include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If an individual in Cardiff is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old 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 requirements and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
