Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Mitchell, GA.

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 drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to consider that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If someone in Mitchell wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, 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 specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and eligibility requisites and these change each year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
