Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to 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 an important role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If an individual in Rush wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 guidelines, limitations and qualification requirements and these vary every year. So, a person who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
