Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take 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 intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If a person in Kershaw 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 rules, limitations and eligibility requirements and these change every year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
