Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover standard drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do accept 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Vernon wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, 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) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and qualification requisites and these change each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year just might be approved this year.
