Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If an individual in Sanford wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and eligibility requirements and these change every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
