Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently 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 take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 include intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If someone in East Chicago is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 rules, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary every year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
