Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Carthage, MO.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If a person in Carthage is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must fulfill 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 rules, limitations and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
