Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - St. Mary, MO.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard drug and alcohol 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If a person in St. Mary wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must satisfy the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and qualification requisites and these change every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
