Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Orient, NY.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play an important 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 rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do accept 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If someone in Orient wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
