Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. 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 holders will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At facilities which do accept 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, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Wolcott wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill 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 specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and qualification requisites and these change every year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
