Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If a person in Lorraine wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 rules, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
