Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover standard drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At rehab centers which do take Medicaid, individuals 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 include intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If someone in Kew Gardens is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old 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, limitations and eligibility requirements and these vary every year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year just might be approved this year.
