Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Datto wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must satisfy the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
