Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At facilities 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If someone in Lyndon is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must fulfill the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and qualification requirements and these change every year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
