Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover standard drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept 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 intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If someone in Port Washington wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and qualification requirements and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
