Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If an individual in Burke wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill 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 specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and qualification requisites and these vary every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
