Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Riverside, MO.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If an individual in Riverside 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) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary every year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might be approved this year.
