Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At rehab centers which do take 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If someone in Meriden is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and qualification requirements and these change each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
