Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept 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 include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If someone in Thomaston is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and eligibility requirements and these change every year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
