Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol 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 substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If an individual in Orwell wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 rules, restrictions and eligibility requisites and these change every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
