Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. 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 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. Services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If a person in Island Park is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for treatment, 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 specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and qualification requisites and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
