Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At facilities which do take 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, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If a person in Chenango Forks wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
