Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do take 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 include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If someone in Eastlake wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet 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 specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and qualification requirements and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
