Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If an individual in East Homer is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
