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 drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If someone in Hartford wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requisites and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
