Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of 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 considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At facilities 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 intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Jonesboro is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet 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, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
