Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to 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 U.S., and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders may want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If a person in Tuscumbia wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet 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 guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
