Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households 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 services in the country, and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If someone in Walker Valley wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, 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) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and eligibility requisites and these change every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
