Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At facilities which do take Medicaid, individuals 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 intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Hurtsboro is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must satisfy the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these change each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
