Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do accept Medicaid, clients 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 consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If someone in Lexington is interested in getting 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 specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requirements and these change every year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might qualify this year.
