Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to take into account that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If an individual in Hermitage is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy 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 guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requisites and these change each year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
