Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers may want to consider that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At facilities 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. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Allenspark wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet the following criteria: 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 requirements and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year just might be approved this year.
