Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Valhalla, 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If someone in Valhalla wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and eligibility requisites and these vary each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
