Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do take Medicaid, clients 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 include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If a person in Almo is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requisites and these change every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
