Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health 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 rehabilitation centers 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 recipients. Services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Kilbourne is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requirements and these vary every year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year just might be approved this year.
