Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At facilities which do accept 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If someone in Jacksonville wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following criteria: 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 rules, restrictions and qualification requisites and these change every year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
