Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If someone in Smithfield is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 rules, limitations and qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might qualify this year.
