Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Winthrop, NY.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to 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 considerable role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders will want to consider that while this is the case, not all facilities 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If an individual in Winthrop wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet 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 eligibility requirements and these change every year. So, a person who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
