Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic 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 an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs 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 include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If a person in Johnsburg is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must satisfy the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requisites and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
