Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At rehab centers 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. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If an individual in Tuckerman 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 rules, limitations and eligibility requisites and these vary every year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
