Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At facilities 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. Services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If a person in Great Bend is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for treatment, 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 guidelines, limitations and qualification requirements and these vary every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
