Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Gerton, NC.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At facilities which do take 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 consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If an individual in Gerton wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet 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, limitations and qualification requirements and these change every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
