Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders may want to consider that while this is the case, not all facilities will take 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Fontana wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet the following guidelines: 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 change each year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
