Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse treatment. 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 will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If a person in Sunnyside wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must satisfy the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requirements and these vary every year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
