Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play an important 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 will take 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Cleveland wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill the following guidelines: 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 guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might be approved this year.
