Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently 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 treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders may want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At facilities 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 consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If someone in Olcott is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and eligibility requisites and these change each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
