Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover standard drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If a person in Absecon wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requisites and these change every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
