Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover standard drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If someone in Palmdale is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 rules, limitations and eligibility requirements and these change each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
