Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept 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 recipients. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If a person in Roeland Park is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill the following guidelines: 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, limitations and eligibility requirements and these change each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
