Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard drug and alcohol 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If a person in Shell Lake 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) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and qualification requirements and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
