Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Trumbull, CT.

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 substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs 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. Services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If an individual in Trumbull wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 vary each year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might qualify this year.
