Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs 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, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Edwards is interested in getting 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) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requisites and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
