Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept 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 consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Mayfield wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, 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 requirements and these change every year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
