Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Ironton, MO.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for 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 a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers may want to consider that while this is the case, not all facilities 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 consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If an individual in Ironton is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
