Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If a person in Fishers is interested in getting 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) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might qualify this year.
