Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At facilities which do accept 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If an individual in West River is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and qualification requisites and these vary every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
