Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take 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 recipients. Services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If someone in Port Matilda wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and eligibility requirements and these change each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might qualify this year.
